The nest, made of sticks and lined with plant material, could be up to 3 feet across.
Whether the pairing carries over to the next season is not known. The male selects the nest area, starts a nest, and then attracts a female.
It begins to breed at 2–3 years of age by forming monogamous pairs each season.
The species breeds in colonies in trees close to large lakes with reed beds or other extensive wetlands, preferably at height of 10–40 feet (3.0–12.2 m).
In 2018, a pair of great egrets nested in Finland for the first time, raising four young in a grey heron colony in Porvoo.

The first confirmed breeding in Sweden was 2012 and in Denmark was 2014.
A similar move northwards has been observed in the Nordic countries where historically it was only a rare visitor.
In January 2021, *Bird Guides*, a UK website and magazine which reports sightings of rare birds, dropped the species from its list of nationally rare birds because sightings had become so numerous.
In 2017, seven nests in Somerset fledged 17 young, and a second breeding site was announced at Holkham National Nature Reserve in Norfolk where a pair fledged three young.
The following week, Kevin Anderson of Natural England confirmed a great egret chick had hatched, making it a new breeding bird record for the UK.
The species was a rare visitor to the UK and Ben Aviss of the BBC stated that the news could mean the UK's first great egret colony had become established.
On 22 May 2012, a pair of great egrets was observed nesting in the UK for the first time at the Shapwick Heath nature reserve in Somerset.
which was formed in part to prevent the killing of birds for their feathers.

Of the digeneans found in central European great egrets, numerous species likely infected their definitive hosts outside of central Europe itself.
Juvenile great egrets were shown to host fewer species, but the intensity of infection was higher in the juveniles than in the adults.
