Nov 9th - I found the cattle egret landing by the roadside ditch/ yard of 
House 6346  Hwy 211 in Cambridge!   However, it took off and headed west. 
No luck in relocating it.

Nov 8th - The cattle egret surfaced on Joan Hebb's yard - 7149 Hwy 211 
Billtown/ Centreville, NS.  It was where the yellow headed blackbird was 
last year.

Hi All,

My son called on his way home from work to report, "a cormorant sized
bird, all white, long legs and long orange-yellow beak, standing
beside the road at Gilbert Allen's". I told him I suspected it was a
cattle egret, as there have been some reported recently.

I drove out to G.W. Allen's and sure enough standing beside the road
by a puddle in front of the machinery lot was a very dejected looking
cattle egret. It was raining and the egret was hunched beside the
parking lot and this puddle, it only reluctantly turned its head when
I stopped to look, as much to say that this puddle in this rainy lot
was taken! I drove on.
