Ooh, egrets! Those guys sometimes hang around pastures, eating everything that the cows or horses scare up. They're kinda shorebirds, like herons, but snowy egrets in particular are also found looking for things stirred up by large herbivores.

Beautiful I was instantly like: Egrets!!! (I'm a bit of a bird fanatic...)

It's the first time I've seen the smaller ones here.

They looked like they were looking for bugs in the mud!

Unfortunately we don't see a wide variety of birds around here, but I do enjoy reading about them!

I got a close up, but it's kind of blurry.

Beautiful! I see egrets every once in a while at ponds or lakes but they've never come to my house!

Well, we do have many birds around here. But I'm talking herons and egrets
