snowy egret

Egretta thula

Description:

The snowy egret is easily identified by its black legs and yellow toes which it is said to use as lures for fish

Notes:

This little guy is creating quite a stir among the Oregon birder community as he is roughly 120 miles further north than is usual for migration and about 200 miles NW of his usual breeding range
