This bird is covered in white plumage and has dark blue beak. The eyes are red with dark pupils. The beak and the eye is connected by a light blue band. The bird has brown legs and feet.
These birds are found in freshwater habitats, mostly alongside rivers and lakes.
I agree Great White in breeding plumage. Bill can get dark and the lores a green blue, legs a pinkish/black
Absolutely not, look at the location, that doesn't even make sense.
Also this is actually Ardea alba in breeding plummage.
E.garzetta have black leg and yellow feet. Its beak is not blue. Could be E.carerulea juvenile
