Cruising

At some places there is still too much water. This attracts beautiful birds. This photo is taken from my backyard. Unfortunately I didn't have my zoom-lens,

Oh wow, what a beautiful bird - it looks like a great egret? We get a very similar looking bird but it is much smaller and is called a little egret.

I think you are right @stephanies - I'm not very good in bird species, but looked it up and it sure does look like an egret!
