Nice to also catch up with two Cattle Egrets at Wheldrake Ings after the heronry survey had taken place – thanks to @duncbye.bsky.social for joining and @ldvbirder.bsky.social for getting the news out on the Cattle Egrets.
The second visit to the local heronry took place earlier this week as part of the @btobirds.bsky.social census, & after over 40 years of surveying this site, there are now almost as many Little Egrets (35 pairs) as Grey Herons (38 pairs) 🪺 @yorkbirding.bsky.social
