This is a white morph (or white phase) Reddish Egret--an unusual white version of the same species as in the previous three images. This bird was extremely active, as you can see--and after these extended antics he gallopped (yes, gallopped) away to the north along the lagoon behind him. Little Estero Lagoon (southern end).
