    Great Egrets are wading birds that thrive in freshwater and saltwater habitats. In the 19th Century, the Great Egret was hunted for its plumes and used to decorate women's hats. As a result of education, conservation and restoration measure, the population of wading birds such as the Great Egret have grown. Programs such as the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP) are a framework for restoring, protecting and preserving the greater Everglades ecosystem. Through the Restoration Coordination and Verification (RECOVER) program, agencies can provide a process for incorporating new science to track progress of impacted ecosystems and manage water.  (Photo by Brigida I.
