The Little Egret is a member of the Heron family
Little Egrets used to be a rare migrant in Britain but as a result of our milder winters they are now a resident and are breeding in many places.Here's a video grap from one I filmed previously

There is more information here; http://www.rspb.org.uk/wildlife/birdguide/name/l/littleegret/

I looked on wikipedia and saw they are in the same family as storks - there is a definite family silhouette
for this type of birds even over vastly different sizes.
P.S. I like the new look
I think that's the fastest response to a post I've ever had!!!
Thanks very much :>)
