That Cattle Egret I found in Somerset County, August 2009? Of course, these are stories of over 460 species, condensed and informed by research gleaned from ornithological literature dating back to 1869. Princeton University Press, 2011. A scarce and very local summer resident in Salem County. Should you buy this book?
