Thank you Sylvia, They were close to extinction in the late 1800s but a man called Edward Avery McIlhenny started a bird city on Avery Island where the birds could breed in safety. The feather demand for ladies hats neatly wiped them out and he helped prevent the Great Egret from extinction.

Great image John. Always wanted to go to Avery Island but I never made it before I moved to Florida.

Don, Jefferson Island is also great for birding and just 10 minutes from Avery Island.

Thank you very much John for the interesting information. Three cheers for Edward.
