Above is a Tricolored Heron that I found at Lake Horton, Fayette County, on July 27, 2006.
White Ibis and Snowy Egrets are considered rare in our area (the Piedmont which is the area above the fall line which
runs roughly from Columbus to Macon to Augusta.)

Above are 33 White Ibis that I found at Lake Horton in Fayette County (Piedmont) on July 27, 2006. Also there were
two Snowy Egrets. Below is a Snowy, Little Blue, and White Ibis.

Snowy Egrets made quite a showing in the piedmont this summer at least for me. I probably found around
15 different ones within about a month. Oddly, though there were almost no more reports from other birders.

| Reddish Egret on Jekyll Island, Oct 2005. |
The Reddish Egret has the eyes of a predator, staring back at me as if to say, "you're going down big sushi".
