There was a single Great Egret yesterday around 12:15pm at the Ira Beaver Marsh. Bird was initially in the cattails at south end of the marsh. Then flew towards the boardwalk, where it banked back south due to people on the boardwalk, and then landed in a snag above the phragmite patch. Bird then flew east towards the Cuyahoga River then started north, before turning around yet again. Appeared to land in the old oxbow between the Towpath Trail and the Cuyahoga River. Chances are, it may resume feeding at the Ira Beaver Marsh if it hasn't left the area. Douglas W.
