I am not the best on my bird ID, but I think this is a Great Blue Heron. C & C welcome.

A bit dark on my monitor, but it does look like a GBH.. I think a bit of post processing would help this shot a bit..

Here is my attempt at PP on this one. I think it looks better, but I am always afraid I am doing too much.
