  We have snowy egrets. Our State is lousy with Great Blue Herons in the
swampy areas. My small hunting group called them GBH's. I'm sure we
don't have any GWH's, like in your picture.

We have snowy egrets, too.  I've never seen any of them away from the pond areas, though.  Occasionally a GBH will stroll across the back yard.  A couple of weeks ago I saw one further down the street.  This is the first time I've seen a Great White Heron taking a stroll well away from the water.
