The Great White Egret (Ardea alba, Syn.: Casmerodius albus, Egretta alba) belongs to the family of herons of the order Pelecaniformes. Four subspecies are distinguished.
The species has a very large distribution area, covering large parts of Eastern and Southern Europe, North, Central and South America, Asia and Africa. In Central Europe the Great White Egret is a locally distributed and common breeding and annual bird. The species shows a pronounced tendency to migrate and is also increasingly observed in regions of Central Europe where it is not a breeding bird.
The great egret (Ardea alba), also known as the common egret, large egret, or (in the Old World) great white egret[2] or great white heron is a large, widely distributed egret, with four subspecies found in Asia, Africa, the Americas, and southern Europe.
