Ardea herodias
Hi bill.schneekloth
In an effort to assure that PN provides the accurate information of spottings published on it, I took a liberty to curate your spotting. I providing the ID, few keywords and references. I also included it in corresponding PN Missions, the ones interested in birdlife.
This appears to be Great Blue Heron, largest heron of America, a large bird found near wetlands.
Hope you don't mind my intervention.
Cheers
