You must have had a lucky day,... I have yet to even hear about an Egret at Humber Bay except from your post.

Now this I have heard about this year. More reports of fire ants than anything else there.

Those ants are trouble, no doubt about it. You do not want to stand still for long.

Someone posted on ebird a sighting of a Black-billed Cuckoo at Humber Bay East on Aug 5. Didn't say where but it's worth looking out for it in the wooded areas.
