Gray Heron , Comfort Cove, Notre Dame Bay, Newfoundland, 20 May 2016


Noted by locals on 16 May. Word reached birders on 19 May. Thought to be same bird present at Bonavista 170 km to the Southeast on 6-7 May 2016. Third record for Newfoundland. This is a long distant crop in heat haze but you can see the patented white thighs.
