The White Ibis is brown as a juvenile.

As an adult, its is all white except for black feathers on its wing tips.

The Snowy Egret can be distinguished from the Great Egret by its black bill and yellow feet, opposite of the Great Egret.

These birds are graceful, but efficient killers of fish. They stand in the water and pierce the fish with their sharp bills. They fold up their necks when they fly and when they perch. See here.

This bird looks like a duck, but is not technically a duck. It is thriving across a wide area of the Eastern US.

Cindi and I took a number of Little Blue Heron pictures but we did not get the detail of the feathers until we got the late side light as we were waiting to board the Sunset Cruise at Tarpon Bay.
