Hi Brian,
Hard to say, but possible. You can find more information on the following link:
http://www.sibleyguides.com/2007/11/great-white-heron-not-just-a-color-morph/
Almost at the enf of Davis Sibley post he includes a map with the distribution.
Thanks for the interest and happy birding.

Is this a large bird? Might have wingspan of maybe between5to 6 feet? If so I just saw one taking off, in circular flight, to gain height in Condado area [San Juan ]close to the lagoon of Condado.This bird was completely white ,unlike the wood stork that has black edged wings.What do you think ?? Could it have been a great blue heron,white morph???I would appreciate your comments .Brian Code.
