A Bittern?


I think so.


As I was swinging around from Peasley Canyon, on to Highway 18, I looked up to see a small brown-looking bird, flying with its feet kicked back, sort of like a heron. But it was small and mottled-brown colored.


The crows were already on its ass, chasing it away. I was thinking, what a baby heron? But brown? So I browsed the Audubon filed and came up with this picture. What do you think?
