Ed Gates called this AM to report having seen a LBHE last evening at the old Hanson's gravel and cement plant pond at the intersection of Rte 79/227. He left a note there and a Jared ? added the bird present this AM, although it was not there at 0900
We went down at 1120 and found a white heron in the very far back situated just NE of the N batch of Cattails. Without a scope it was a small white heron. Called Ed who confirmed having scoped it and had positive ID. This pond is NOT in the Cayuga Lake Basin by a very short distance.
