12 Volt Man Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 from what I understand, southern Florida has a white colour morph of the Great Blue Heron that has yellow legs, but it is only found in florida. normal blue herons have grey legs. egrets have black legs, as your photo shows.

Yeah, not much north of Florida Bay. My wife and I canoed almost right up to a couple of them, got some nice slides. There is also an intermediate form with a normal body colour and a white head, called Wurdemann's heron. Saw a couple of them but couldn't get close.
