I don't like that these vicious egrets are lumped in with blue herons, which we have up here. They seem like such quiet, peaceful birds. I'd certainly hope they wouldn't start a slap fight.

Well, as you might tell from the name, the Great Egret is bigger. One of those sites said it can have up to a 50 ft wingspan. Pteryodactyl much?
