Well, the debate around here is a juvenile blue heron (me), but DH thinks it's a king fisher of some kind. I've had adult blue heron around here, and a baby may have been blown off course because of those dratted winds last week. He showed up the day after they quit. I'll send a few more photos. It sure has me stumped. Look at the curvature on the neck. Not as visible in the other photos.
