I think it is a Great Egret, looks like one in your photo and one has been in the area for some weeks now.
While cycling through Gungahlin this morning; spotted a Cattle Egret on
a small pond just next to the bikepath near the intersection of Gundaroo
Drive and Horse Park Drive: https://goo.gl/maps/TyNXQPj5f2GrqfqVA. Image
is cropped from a photo taken with my phone, hence fairly poor quality.
