Re: [cobirds] Bird identification

Nice Great Blue Heron Kristen.  Bent neck shape and upper wing pattern are quite diagnostic.

Hi all!

A friend of mine sent me this picture and I can't figure out what species I'm looking at. My first thought was common crane because of the colors on the wings but they don't normally live around here, do they? Perhaps it got caught up with some sandhill cranes?

Any ideas are appreciated!

Thanks! 

Kristen
