Reddish Egret (White Morph)

Reddish Egret Reddish Egrets come in two wonderful varieties, a  dark morph  and a white morph, both with equal amounts of spunk.  White morphs are a little harder to find, so they are extra special to see.  They may at first look a little like Great Egrets, but Great Egrets have a mostly yellow bill, while there's no yellow on a Reddish Egret bill.  Great Egrets also have black legs, and Reddish Egrets do not. I love seeing these guys in full breeding plumage with blue lores, bill and legs. Reddish Egret Reddish Egret Reddish Egret Reddish Egret Reddish Egret Reddish Egret
