Twitter account reporting sighting of Great White Egret.... can you confirm this? Want to try and get my Number 1 'Bogey Bird' twitched once and for all - 9 twitches for it, 9 Dips!

I forgot a few things from yesterday;
Water pipit - one from 360 hide and there were actually five hen harriers (two males, two females and a juv).
No sign of the GWE this morning, but I'm sure it's still about somewhere. There was a male hen harrier, two avocets on the reedbed and a spotted redshank on the saltmarsh.
