Last Wednesday, early morning
risers saw a big white bird perched
in a water birch near the mouth of
Knapps Creek. When the visitor
took wing to travel on down the
river to a warmer climate, it was
recognized as a great white heron, or
showy egret. The local name is
white crane. This traveler got this
far north a bit too early for comfort.
For many years white herons were
not seen on the Greenbrier River.
The beautiful birds had about all
been killed off for their making
plumes aigrettes--to dress extravag-
ant hats for women of fashion. A
stern law put a stop to this needless,
cruel waste. It was bad enough to
kill the old birds for their really
wonderful plumes. What was worse,
the plumes were at their finest when
the baby birds were helpless in the
nest. Killing the parent birds meant
the babies would perish miserably.
This killing at both ends of the life
line came near putting an end to the
aigrettes.
