Little Egret


 This Little Egret was flying around at Ferrymoor before deciding to land on one of the islands. It is in the same class as Herons, Storks and Ibises. They were at one time is very short supply in the UK but seem to have increased greatly now. One  or two of them can be seen visiting Ferrymoor where they are very welcome. Hopefully we will be sing many more here in 2025
