Snowy Egret in Florida Feb 2014

Over the week Donna and I saw many Snowy Egrets.  They are beautiful little egrets with golden slippers. 


 

The Snowy Egret (Egretta thula) is a small white heron. It is the American counterpart to the very similar Old World Little Egret.

Adults are typically 61 cm (24 in) long and weigh 375 g (0.827 lb)
