Cattle egret. Not sure if egret is even correct.

Are they the ones that invade other nests to lay their eggs? If so, kill it now
Yes they are and I totally agree with your solution.

Had 4 ducklings come up to my feet while fishing on a bank yesterday
If I would have had bread they would have eaten it out of my hand. Cool feeling but they got annoying as hell cause they would hustle over to where My lure landed thinking it was bread
I "gently" tapped one on the head and they all gtfo

You are going to get the Bird Flu which will then inevitably lead to a zombie apocalypse. Thanks.

Like I said, Kill it
The Brown-headed Cowbird (Molothrus ater or BHCO, 3 subspecies) and Bronzed Cowbird (Molothrus aeneus - found in TX, NW and AZ ) are the only obligate brood parasites in North America. The Shiny Cowbird (M. bonariensis) reached Florida in 1985 but has not been recorded breeding in North America (BNA). Cowbirds don't build their own nests. Instead, they generally remove an egg from another specie's nest, replace it with one of their own, and then rely on the surrogate parent to incubate the egg and rear the nestling.

That is so awesome. I wish I could raise some woodies.
We had about 15 and now we have 0.

Why kill it, though? It's a native migration that brings them here, not human actions. Let nature be natural.
