Anyone know who this guy would be? We met him in the Target parking lot last night and he didn't introduce himself. He just stood there. So I took a pic with my phone. I thought from a distance he looked like a turkey vulture... then we drove closer (I didn't want to stand by him, he was big) and he had webbed feet.



That's not a good pic.

If you don't know anything about this guy, have you seen any odd animals lately?

From the blurry pic is looks like a Muscovy duck. Also known as the hemmoroid face.

That does look like him. He's a duck? Weird.

Thank you DJ!

YUM!

I got one.
Anyone know what this guy is? I see him and his friends a lot when I go to this one park I go to sometimes.

Is it wrong that I think that hemorrhoid face duck is cute?

White heron.

Cool.
Thanks DJ!

They're interesting birds. Huge wingspan. They're pretty much just wing, neck, and beak.

Yours doesn't have legs Potato !!!!

What's the difference between an egret and a white heron? Or are those different names for the same bird?

An egret is a heron. Same birdie. Different name.

Gotcha

Well, there is some slight difference according to some info, something about feathers, but from what I know they're interchangeable. I just call them Herons.

Just curious, because we only have the blue heron variety here.

My father calls them shypokes, which Wikipedia is leading me to believe is a bastardization of "shitepokes."

I think they're so cool looking. We have tons of white varieties around here but my parents have the big blue ones and huge sandhill cranes in Montana/Yellowstone. I never seem to get a good pic of them but I shot this little guy at our man-made lake while back.

Fuckers used to eat the goldfish out of the pond we had when I was a kid.
