Observation details
Wading bird flying east over 600W. After noticing size and the small legs I realized it was an American Bittern. Pulled car over to entry lane, possibly for Burger King, and snapped a few photos. Overall a dark bird with white vent, large bill, hunchbacked appearance, and small legs so only the foot extended past the tail.
