Butorides virescens
This young heron was spotted in marsh behind a popular retail and restaurant space in Shem Creek. It wasn't until I was looking at the pictures I took later that I noticed it has something wrong with its feet. I don't know if this are the result of deformity or injury, but both feet seem to be affected to some degree.
Green Herons live around wooded ponds, marshes, rivers, reservoirs, and estuaries.
