But, I thought that the bicolored bill could also indicate a Reddish Egret, White Morph. Since there's a tinge of green in the body of the bird, I'm thinking maybe the green is just my white balance being off?? Or maybe a reflection from the water. And to confuse me further, I think another possibility with the greenish legs and bicolored bill is a young Snowy Egret. Help... :O) |
