The larger egret is about twice the size of the snowy. They're both beautiful birds. We have an egret who fishes on the river in the morning, pretty close to the house, but I haven't seen a snowy for several years. One problem is that the neighborhood's getting too crowded. Everybody's bailing out of New York and coming down here to get away from the confiscatory taxation, and it's driving the birds away. I hope they're just going farther south.
