I mentioned previously that there is only one species of Egrets we see right where I live.

That species is the Great Egret.

I am fortunate that we have a few different options for finding wading birds like Great Egrets where I live.

One such option is along the Chemung River.

The river is often not particularly deep. So Great Egrets can be seen at almost any point from one shoreline to the opposite bank on the Chemung River.

The Great Egrets seem to be showing up with increasing frequency along the Chemung River.

Hopefully that means I will have even more opportunities to photograph the Great Egrets that frequent our area.
