[EBB Sightings] Seen any banded Great Egrets?

This was on a national sightings list:

> "The Canadian Wildlife Service has colour-banded more than 1,200
> young-of-the-year Great Egrets on four colonies in the Great Lakes
> Basin since 2000. All birds have been fitted with at least one red
> leg band with white alpha numerics. Reports of these birds have come
> from the southeastern United States and Cuba, with one report from
> the Azores Islands. PLEASE check all Great Egrets seen during the
> winter; our winter reports have been very few for the number of birds
> banded. Sightings should be reported to the federal Bird Banding
> Laboratory and to Chip Weseloh at "

Maybe they're seeing few of the birds 'cuz they headed this way instead 
of southeast?
