OMG, you're right, Marijn! I reviewed the other pics of this flying individual and indeed the bill, neck and legs are too short. I must have been initially fooled by the oblique angle. Thanks.

Hi Romy, although it looks quite impressive on this very nice pic, I think it's a Cattle Egret. Short neck, short stout bill, short legs.
