Probably the least common of the Herons we see here, this Little Blue Heron was on Cayman Brac. From a distance we thought maybe it was a Cuban Sandhill Crane which is rare indeed. #birds

Large wading bird gliding on the thermals over the deep blue of the Caribbean. Even this little blue can have a nearly 120cm wingspan. This image and the next two show him from different angles on the grass beside the pond. He's gray and white with black tipped long sharp beak. Hard to see here but there is a fringe on the back of his neck here you can see from the side his formidable beak, his neck curled to strike at anything unlucky enough to happen near him image
