These two egrets seem to be getting a late start at nest building.

The White morph Reddish Egret is the rarest egret here in Florida. It is often confused with the Great Egret due to similarities in color and size. The Great Egret has a yellow bill stands still as it stalks its prey. The Reddish Egret has a dark bill, dark legs, and runs, jumps and dances while foraging in tidal flats along the Coastline.
