The link shown took me to the site...owners are named as Ashish and Jay. Reply to a query is in the name of asis...maybe it is the same person.

Alice, Yes, both the bird are closely related though they are not the same species. Notable differences include less plumes and green lores in the Old World variety.

In the States we would call it a Snowy Egret because of the yellow feet, but likely your name is different.
