Observation details
Observed this bird for a while. I’m not entirely sure I identified it correctly though. The bird had a brown neck and greenish-grey body. It appeared to have a yellow ring around its eye. It could extend and retract its neck, and it appeared to be about the size of a crow when its neck wasn’t extended. It was originally perched on a small tree hanging over the lake. It would occasionally stretch out its neck to peck at its feathers. I observed it standing with one wing outstretched for a fair amount of time. When I attempted to get closer to get a better view and picture, it moved. I later saw it again soaring across the lake only inches above the water.
