Snowy Egret
Adults are all white with a black slender bill, a long neck, black legs, yellow feet, and a yellow spot at the base of their bill. Juveniles look similar, except their legs are more of a greenish color.
Can be found along the coast or inland in wetland habitats.
These birds round up their prey and then spear fish with their bill. They tend to eat fish, frogs, worms, insects, and crustaceans. They catch their prey standing, walking, or running.
They fight over nesting territory and have noisy mating displays. Males pump their body up and down, point their beak towards the sky, and make their mating calls.
