Our Video of the Week takes you on a visit to a Great Egret nesting site. These gorgeous white birds live across North America wetlands and become even more stunning during breeding season with long plumes and a bright green face patch. Egrets were nearly hunted to extinction in the late nineteenth century when their plumes were used to adorn ladies' hats. A ban on hunting in 1910 allowed the species to bounce back and populations are now stable. | Cornell Lab of Ornithology
