Great Egret Beginning to show Breeding Plumage

I found a nesting tree for Great Blue Herons and Great Egrets today. This is the first time I have seen egrets nest here, but I may have missed some too. For the most part, they always seemed to spend only part of the year locally. It is good to see nests.
