Hi folks, on the morning ride to work this morning along the Yarra bike
path (Melbourne) I spotted the resident little egret at Dights falls,
and then another one lower down opposite the Laver Arena, close to the
CBD.

I know it's still possible that there is a single bird (which has been
my assumption for the last couple of years since seeing the bird
regularly), as the egret could fly much faster than I can ride. The bike
path doesn't go along the Yarra bank all the way, by cuts corners and
makes other diversions.  However, I've never seen two egrets together
anywhere along the lower Yarra.

My question - has anyone seen these two together, or have I indeed been
overtaken by a stealth egret?

Bill
