Little White Birds?
Does anyone know what the little white birds are that hang out near Oak Meadow Park and Breckenwood? I have seen about 20 of them. They look like miniature egrets.
How little are we talking? If they look like egrets and are more than a foot tall, and usually stand on the ground then they are probably cattle egrets. They are smaller than the Snowy egrets and slightly more ornate looking. If you snap a photo with your cell phone and post it I can tell you for sure. -- Jaimie
Have you been the victim of package (UPS, etc.) theft?

I will try to do that, although I have not seen them in a week or so. After looking up both the types you described, they might be cattle egrets.
