Hi all,
regarding the observation on 8-14 of the SNOWY EGRET at Hughes Hollow, I observed probably the same bird as Paul Woodward.  The Snowy Egret was separate from the Little Blues and feeding in the manner described by Paul.  I also noted the bright yellow lores in contrast to the pale grey lores of the little blues.  My Great Egret count was 30 which was a conservative estimate.  Also observed a juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron as well as a single Blue-winged Teal mixed in with the many Wood Ducks. One lonely Adult Red-headed Woodpecker was foraging in one of the dead snags that he was forced to share with hundreds of starlings.

On my way out I  checked the polo fields on Hughes Rd. and found approximately 30 horned larks and 7 killdeer.  

Good Birding,
Chris Murray
