The snowy egret is about the same size as a large crow.

The egret is specific; the crow is not (they can be small, medium or big/large).

Let it be "a large crow"

Pardon me, but the first sentence?
I would say simply "is an elevator" not "having an elevator."

Damn, that egret is one big bird. Can it feed a family of 4?
