"The elegant Great Egret is a dazzling sight in many a North American wetland. Slightly smaller and more svelte than a Great Blue Heron, these are still large birds with impressive wingspans. They hunt in classic heron fashion, standing immobile or wading through wetlands to capture fish with a deadly jab of their yellow bill." https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/great_egret/id)

I love to watch the egret and heron as they hunt for food. They are programmed to be masters of the hunt. This egret swiftly captured it's meal quick as a flash, and then swallowed it in one gulp. Not my style of eating but whatever works for it! :)
