Description
This beautiful exotic white bird was photographed at an animal park outside Sydney, Australia.
He is very similar to North American white herons and egrets.
The fine, dainty, filigree like feathers, which are breeding plumage, give him a fancy, elegant, exotic look.

What a beauty this is, Carla! I love those long feathers in the back and all the details. Voted

Thanks, Lainie. We visited a wonderful park outside of Sydney that had lots of native Australian animals. It had originally had only birds, but an incredibly extensive collection of them. With limited time, I primarily zeroed in on the koalas, the kangaroos and wallabies, the Tasmanian devil (who wouldn't be still long enough for me to get a very good shot... he kept tearing around in a circle the whole time we were there), the wombat, the Australian hedgehog, and a really cute porcupine, but this creature was outstanding among the birds. Aren't the feathers amazing??
