Ardea herodias
I was sort of surprised to see them here since we weren't near any large body of water. A creek did run close by, but these two heron were perched on that large rock looking out over trees and fields.

Great shots! I wasn't sure about my ID until after I checked but looks like they are pretty widespread across the US.
