Larry Gara and I found two immature Little Blue Herons at the Mound Road
access point at Caesar Creek.  Presumably, these are the same birds Rick
Asamoto reported on Sunday.  I got some serviceable pictures.  You can find
them on my account on Google+ or at the following link:

The birds were well observed, separated from Snowy Egret by the
particolored bill and the uniformly greenish-yellow legs.  (Immature
snowies have black legs with a greenish-yellow stripe up the back.)  Great
Egret was eliminated by leg and bill color and size.

Cheers,

Bob
