view--cattle egret and pied king fisher
 
  
  
 The Great Egret Ardea alba, also known as the Great White Egret, White Heron, or Common Egret, is a wading egret, found in most of the tropical and warmer temperate parts of the world, although it is very local in southern Europe and Asia. It is called Kōtuku in New Zealand. It is sometimes confused with the Great White Heron in Florida, which is a white morph of the Great Blue Heron.

But the photo shown here is a cattle egret, not a great egret. I just didn't see enough great egret to drop the text in.
