IDENTIFY THIS BIRD:
This was taken in my backyard and was the best picture I could get. It flew over my head and had a HUGE wingspan. Might have been the biggest bird I have ever seen. The bird was really high up, so it look small in the picture, but trust me it was just taken far away. This thing is massive. I live in New York, what could this be?
It's a heron. I found a heron carcass near an osprey nest once. Or just it's wings, really. Big birds.
Yeah, looks like a Great Blue to me. I can't go two days without running into one of these because they're in every single park in the area. People still manage to go apeshit over seeing them when they're more common than dogs.

They like to hang around in the ditch with the snowy egrets where I live.
Great Blue Heron.
What's so great about it?
