Observation details
(Originally reported as Cattle Egret; updating to Western Cattle Egret based upon recent annual taxonomy change.) Thanks to Steve Smith for reporting this! Western Cattle Egret located on CR-215 in La Plata county, CO. Eliminated Snowy Egret due to the following: located with cows in a pasture, and not in a wetlands environment. Bill is yellow and not black. Tail is straight and not curled. Legs are shorter in length proportional to body size. Overall height is at about 20 inches based upon the length of the metatarsal section of the cows hind leg.
