Don Freiday passed along a full-view image of the banded "Harbor Heron" that was seen in Cumberland County during a recent Christmas Bird Count.
We had posted a photo of just the band last week, and thought a shot of the full bird would be neat.
The Great Egret was banded on South Brother Island in the east River in June — roughly 120 miles north-northwest as the Great Egret flies.
Earlier post, with info on NYC Audubon/NJ Audubon Harbor Heron Project, plus other links, is here.
(Thanks, Don!)
