I had a bit of a surprise this afternoon. I drove to a couple of ponds/gravel pits west of Rexburg looking for Scoters (no luck). While driving I noticed an egret flying away, on closer inspection I noticed it was a Cattle Egret. It continued flying away until I lost sight of it. I initially saw it a mile or so southwest of Rexburg High School. I lost sight of it flying southeast. It’s been a few years since I’ve seen a Cattle Egret in Idaho.
