OK so there isn't much happening and I'm bored. Here's an easy game, what am eye???

[Deb]

Well let me see ......  

I'm guessing it's the eye of the very scary, bird predecesor ... the one and only dinosaur called veloceraptor! Am I correct?   Do I win a box of low-fat Cheeze-itz (my favorite snack cracker)?

Hum, not a cat (or like animal), I'd say maybe some kind of bird?

They may be related in a distant sort of way Deb but the tails a little shorter and the wings are considerably bigger.   Definitely prehistoric looking though....

I'd say maybe some kind of bird?

OK Bernard I'll pull back just a bit and see if it helps someone identify that "bird"...

[Deb]

Hmmmmmm, does it have very long legs by any chance?

[Mike54]

does it have very long legs by any chance?

Yes, I'd say it has very long legs.  

[Deb]

Hmmmmm, does it have a very long, straight, slender beak?

[bdery]

I think I got it... A heron, maybe?

I must say, based on the first picture, I thought it was looking in the other direction. Maybe it is, though, but the "face" (such as it is) looks like it points to the right.

Hmmmmm, does it have a very long, straight, slender beak?

Yes, but its nowhere near as long as its legs.

I think I got it... A heron, maybe?

Lacking some specificity but yes, it is a (Great Blue) Heron. You'll have to share the Cheeze-itz with Deb though, for your lack of certainty...

Hey, that's a neat shot! Was the bird grooming it's wing? I see little bits of down on the tip of her/his beak.
