Actually, cattle egrets have yellow bills (yellowish orange) , period :-)
But there is a bird called a "little" egret that has a dark bill and is
more cattle egret sized...
Nice portrait

It may be a snowy egret:

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.

Understand this parrot sized bird is a Cattle Egret.(?)
Would like to have had access to the eye on a full body shot, but
it wouldn't cooperate.
Yesterday at the Sacramento National Reserve, 'prox 110 round trip
miles away.
C&C appreciated!
