Today I viewed the 2 Cattle Egrets near Chatham that has been reported on Ontbirds.

In the morning a nice surprise with 3 white phase Snow Geese flying SW together with 4 Canada Geese.

Yesterday there were som passerine migration with 5 Blue-headed Vireos, 10 Yellow-rumped Warblers and 2 White-throated Sparrows.

Thanks for the Egret update Thomas.
I'm hoping they will stick around for the weekend.
I meant to make it out there this past weekend, but work got in the way.

There seems to be some kind of Cattle Egret invasion going on right now with lots of Cattle Egrets reported on Ontbirds. The last report: 14  :!: of them in Ottawa area.
