Hello everyone,
I've been following the Tampa Bay Ardea hybrid for a while. It has a page on Bird Hybrids devoted to it: Great Blue Heron x Great Egret.
Many suspect that it is GHBE x GREG, but others believe it could be GREG x REEG.
A recent Reddit post claims that genetic tests have confirmed the ancestry of this bird: . This is very exciting and I've wanted to get confirmation from the researchers involved with this project. However, I've waited a while and still have not received a response from the author of the Reddit post.
Does anyone know the people who may have performed this genetic testing? Might there be any way for me to see these results?
Thanks for any help or input you can provide!
