I present to you North America's rarest heron: the reddish egret! After paddling miles of the coastal Everglades and striking out on flamingos, I was able to spot this particular wading bird with a group of Wilson's snipes and other shore birds. I wanted to be sure before posting, but confirmed it was indeed a reddish egret! This is why I never say "no" to a day of paddling the Everglades. You never know what you'll bump into out there.
