Maybe he flew in from LA (Louisiana) for vacation. Looks like he is from
down here.

Nice pic. I would suggest it's an egret of some sort, though most egrets
(in Europe and Africa) have black bills. Perhaps this is a New World
variety.

While I was stalking the turkeys yesterday, I saw this bird fly past
and land in a not too distant tree. I was hoping to get a few shots
of him before he took off. I moved slowly towards him and took a
shot. Then moved to the side a bit and got this shot. He took off
right after this shot. I got one in flight. If someone wants to ID
the bird I would be grateful.
