Among the most elegant of the wading birds I've encountered in central Florida wetlands, the Snowy Egret sets off immaculate white plumage with black legs and yellow feet.
Adult Snowy Egrets (Egretta thula) have greenish-yellow feet for most of the year, but at the height of the breeding season their feet take on a much richer, orange-yellow hue. The bare skin on their face also changes color, from yellow to reddish.
