Great White Egret ?

Post by John Frankland »

Tantalising 2 second view from car on M6 Euxton near Pack Saddle Bridge of what could have been a GWE at 715am.

Bird approached from direction of Pack Saddle Bridge over M6 towards Runshaw College.

Heron sized bird that felt too large for a Little Egret but was definitely white. Only options based on size would be GWE or an albino Grey Heron.

Frustrating that seen from M6 with no way to pull over !
