Not a great photo, thanks to the reeds between me and the sub­ject, and the dim morn­ing light. I’m not even sure what this bird is. Stork? Pelican? Something else? It was freak­ing huge, and I was really hop­ing to get a full frame shot of it, but it saw me creep­ing up and gen­tly swam out into the mid­dle of the lake. I am think­ing about buy­ing a canoe.
