Description
The Snowy Egret gets its name from its all-white plumage. It is a medium-sized white heron that is distinguished by its slender black bill, black legs, and yellow feet. The Snowy Egret has a wide range of habitat, that includes marshes, swamps, ponds, lakes, shallow coastal areas, mangroves, and even dry fields. They are carnivorous birds and feed on a variety of small creatures, such as small fish, fiddler crabs, crustaceans, snakes, young frogs, small lizards, crayfish, terrestrial and aquatic insects, snails, and aquatic vegetation. In a behavior displayed by most herons, the Snowy Egret also stands on one leg and waits for its prey.
This photo was taken in Fort Myers Beach, Florida.
