Hey, Darren.

I may have seen it at about 2:30 pm in a field Northeast of Idaho Falls (East side of Hitt Road about 2/10 mile south of Telford Road). Definitely an egret, but I wasn’t able to stop and look at it closely.

Subject: [IBLE] Cattle Egret

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.
