____ egret (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

heron

snowy

'egret?' is the definition.
(egret is a kind of heron)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for heron that I've seen before include "flier" , "Long-legged long-necked wading bird" , "Graceful grey bird with long neck" , "Large British wading bird" , "Rhone (anag) - bird" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the Penny Press.
