I think you are correct. Thank you for the quick response. Impressive !
Hopefully, I will see it again and have my camera ready.
Forrest: maybe a Great White Egret is what you saw : http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/138...
Do you have any idea of what the name of a bird that looks like and is the same size as a G B H, except it is totally white ? I saw one but did not get a picture of it. Hopefully, I can next time I see it.
