Thanks for the ID Mark. We have never had them here before (that I know of)
and these guys have been hanging around for over a week. Must be stocking
up on groceries before moving on south. They have been so much fun to watch
as we were out there digging and planting.
I even have a way to tie them into iris...a flock of them would solve Donald
Eaves grasshopper problems <G>.

Dana,
Those are Cattle Egrets. I love those birds. We have them
sporadically
about nine months out of the year. The way they walk reminds me of that
Bangles "Walk Like an Egyptian" video.
