Egrets Nesting Across Wichita Area Amid Bridge Construction
The egrets have moved from Haysville to Chisholm Creek Park and an island by Twin Lakes, with some nesting sites still uncertain. A nearby I-235 bridge project barely affects them, while resident Traci Terrill reports yard trees removed to deter birds and cites occasional city violations for overgrown yards. Migratory egrets protected by law, five species nest in Wichita, including snowy and cattle egrets, with cattle egrets now about 80 percent of the local population.
