Hi Birders,

Chris Sonnerberg queried whether anyone else has come across Cattle Egrets nesting in reeds. I am familiar with the following rookeries where Cattle Egrets have nested and can advise that all Cattle Egret nests were in trees

Viz

Gillets Ridge near Grafton Broad-leafed Paperbark

Seaham Swamp Broad-leafer Paperbark

Shortland Wetland Centre Broad-leafed Paperbark

Toronto Wetland primarly Swamp Oak Casuarina glauca

Tuggerah STW Narrowleafed Tea-tree Melaleuca sp.

Almond Rd Swamp Leeton Black Box

Macquarie Marshes River Red Gum
