The feeding habitats of Great (Ardea alba) and Snowy (Egretta thula) egrets at the Great Marsh in Northeastern Massachusetts, USA, were characterized through field observations over two years during the breeding seasons of 2012 and 2013. Both species were from a large breeding colony making a daily commute to the Great Marsh for foraging. Habitats at the Great Marsh were delineated as marsh pools, the vegetated marsh, impoundments, open water, tidal flats, and tidal creeks and ditches. Observations (45 counts in 2012 and 48 in 2013) consisted of recording the number of birds, behavior (feeding or not), habitat, and the time of observation and relating these observations to the tidal cycle. The preferred feeding habitats of Snowy Egrets were in marsh pools and along the edges of large impoundments. The preferred feeding habitats of Great Egrets were on the marsh platform, particularly at high tides, and marsh pools. An analysis of physical characteristics with locations of feeding sites revealed no consistent patterns. Certain sites would occasionally support large numbers of feeding Great and Snowy egrets one day only to be ignored the next day at the same tide. The results suggest that Great and Snowy egrets are opportunistic in their selection of feeding sites at the Great Marsh. A future of wetter marshes might provide more feeding opportunities for Great and Snowy egrets, at least in the short-term.
