Isaac, glad to hear that you and your dad were able to see the Egret. Thanks for giving the update.
I'm kind of curious to see how long it hangs out there.

Hello birders,
the Great Egret was still at Eagle Point. I saw the bird at about 7:00 pm.
Cheers, Brent Schmor Harrison Mills

The Egret continues to be in the area....this morning (8:30 am) it was over at my end and I managed to get some decent pictures of it. It then wandered up the creek towards Morris Valley Road. Didn't see it on my mid day walk but yesterday when I walked over to Eagle Point Park, about 1:30 pm, it was right at the edge of the water just opposite the log bay, but then flew up to my end where I got pictures that I haven't even had a chance to down load yet.

Hello birders,
I saw the Great Egret about about 6:30 way, way across the water on the Harrison River. You would have needed a scope to see it. Also had six Chipping Sparrows in the yard, a new bird for me in Harrison Mills. There were two larger sparrow-type birds with them, but by the time I got my binocs on them a dog walked by and away they went.
Cheers, Brent Schmor Harrison Mills
