Great Blue Heron

The great blue heron (Ardea herodias) is a large wading bird that lives in North and Central America, the Caribbean, and the Galápagos Islands. It's the largest heron in North America, with a long neck, thick bill, and shaggy appearance. Great blue herons are excellent fishers, using their long, dagger-like bills to strike fish that come within range. They can hunt day and night thanks to their excellent night vision and binocular vision.
