Great Egret

Ardea alba

Description:

Tall white wading bird with an orange bill and long black legs.

Habitat:

Circle B Bar Reserve, Lakeland, FL.

Notes:

I could tell that this bird was eating something when I took the picture, but I was surprised when I blew it up. The lake that this reserve sits next to is only 2-3 feet deep on average, so I'm guessing there are a lot of these little freshwater plecostomuses.
