Collage of... - a photo on Flickriver

Collage of...

            These are not very good pictures but this creature was about a football field distance from me and I had the zoom maxed out.  Is this a pelican? One of my flickr friends said it may be an egret...I think she may be right.  The bill doesn't look like a pelican. I have never seen any out at Shelby Farms Park where I spotted this guy/girl perched in the tree.  When I got to where I was closer to get better shots, it was gone!  GRRRRR  LOL  

UPDATE:  Because I have such wonderful and knowledgeable friends here, I now know this is a heron!  I haven't ever seen any of these around the ponds/lakes at Shelby Farms either.  What a blessing to be shown this!!  Thank you to all you answered :)
