Great Egret on Lajes do Pico

Like every time I go to Pico Island also this time it had some nice birds waiting for me.
Tipped by Joao Quaresma, skipper from the famous Espaco Talassa whale watch base, about a Great Egret I had a better look against the cliffs and find it on big distance. I,m stil not shore if it is a yank as it  did not show the leggs.

On the west side  of the Island still a nice suprise came up. 3 Purple sandpipers on the last daylight.
