I love birds!
Looked out the back window this morning and this is what I saw! A beautiful, big white bird (Great Egret), perched on my stock tank! Oh, cool! — grabs cell phone for a pic! Beautiful and so close! It took about 30 seconds before it hit me....
I have 2 “tanks“ (stock tank and an intex pool) in the backyard, filled with my 30 or so goldfish. We moved a year ago, and are waiting to have a proper pond dug.
I ran out to chase the bird away, but there’s no sign that any fish survived. I’ll check again in a little while.
