Feb. 27, 2011 - Snowy Egrets
Read MoreAmong the Egrets and Herons found in North America, I would nominate the Snowy Egret as the most beautiful. At about 2 feet tall, it seems dainty and delicate and its long white breeding plumes are especially impressive. This one, found at the fishing pier on Sanibel Island, wasn’t being dainty however. It was chasing another Snowy Egret and was very aggressive about it.
