Ok..We have a bird at the "O" pond, here in Greenup co..
I haven't a clue what it is.. I have never seen one before..
I can't find it online..or in my books..

I can however, describe it.. it may be something common for you all..maybe a 
bird that got off course during all the storms.
It seems to be staying there.. here goes if anyone can help me figure out what 
it is.  I will do my best to describe it.. I have seen it 3 times now..and 
didn't have my camera with me.

This bird is pretty big.. it's a water bird, it's basically black/dark.. has NO 
tail.. has "orange" legs and feet.
It has a long neck with a long beak that curves up a bit.

We keep seeing it fishing.. it does light in a tree.. so it's feet aren't 
webbed.

That's about all I can say.. other than I just can't find it anywhere.. and 
like I said.. it's a first for this area..and I've lived here 37 yrs..

thanks everyone..
