gives some nice pictures... I have never been able to tell the difference
between a heron and an egret... I think though that the only heron with a
long neck is the great heron and it is gray/blue.

They build an office building nearby a few months back, and there is a
large
catch basin for the parking lot water. It's full now, and the ducks,
geese,
etc. haved moved in. Somehow some fish ended up in there as well, as we
saw
something, a heron maybe, hunting there this weekend. We warned the kids
that if they see that bird in the yard that they should send the dog out.
LOL.

Anyway...do heron come in all white?
