Cattle Egret

Had some time off today, and after doing the shopping I popped down to Chesunt, hoping that being a weekday, the Cattle Egrets would be back on Penton Field.
There was no-one in the park when I got there at 1015, and having quickly scanned through the Black Headed and Common Gulls one Cattle Egret was found at the southern end feeding on worms. It wasn't all that approachable, but keeping my distance I managed to get a few decent shots. My 9th for Herts and the first since the (then) record flock of 8 at Stockers Lake in 1992.
