Cattle egrets usually have yellow bills, and the ones I see lack such a noticeable crest. https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Cattle_Egret/id
It may be a snowy egret: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Snowy_Egret/id In what environment was it seen? Cattle egrets are mostly seen on dry land, while other egrets are usually water birds. In any event, it is a fine image.
