Snowy Egrets by Sara Gray

Snowy Egrets by Sara Gray

In her original account, Sara Gray recalled watching a flock of snowy egrets along a beach just after sunrise. She described the birds feeding, bathing and moving in and out of the surf. The estimated flock size was an observation from that visit, not a current count.
