Off topic - heron/egret photo taken at Montgomery Reef, Kimberley, WA

Hi Julie

I think it is an Eastern Reef Egret, in Morcombe it is shown with a yellow bill, not in Pizzey and Knight

I'm not sure which reference you have

Hi Everyone,

A friend took this shot recently and I am unable to positively ID it ... Eastern Reef Heron is about all I could come up with, but the yellow bill doesn't seem to fit.

Help with Id would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

Julie
