Snowy Egret (*Egretta thula*) displaying its breeding plumage. The plumage is characterized by elegant, feathery aigrettes extending from its back, neck, and head. Its white body contrasts with the green foliage surrounding it. The egret's slender black bill and black legs with yellow feet are visible, often found in marshes or wetlands in North and South America. This visual display is typical during mating season to attract partners.
