Reddish Egret
Reddish Egrets don’t always dance around crazily. Note bi-colored bill. Corpus 2/24/25.

Was able to see this lifer reported at Hooks woods on recent trip to High Island. Not many lifer left for me on our annual High Island trip.
Really enjoyed this beautiful and cooperative gull !! I’ve decided Glaucous and Iceland are my favorites, until I see an Ivory or Ross’s at least!!
And finally, here’s another cool gull from Corpus. It took me 7 tries over the past 3 years to finally get this gull. He’s been returning to a bait shop there for at least that long. Also compared to Herring in 1 pix.
Thanks to Suzie for getting me on this article by Kenn Kaufman that explains White-throated Sparrows morphs. Fascinating!! Audubon Magazine Article
