Re: Egrets and Herons

Hi all,

Touring Cornwall I'm used to seeing Egrets rather than Herons around the coastal villages, whilst in Looe looking for the White Egrets I came across a Grey Heron in the estuary doing a spot of sea fishing.

Hi Mocha, and thank you. I love these Heron. I was just talking to a birder the other day about how it seems lately around here we seem to see more Heron in the winter when they used to fly farther south. It still gets cold here in the winter but less harsh then when I was younger. We were trying to decide if climate change or they have just adapted over time.
