I know very little about birds. Can someone identify this guy for me?

Looks a lot like a crested something or other fish eater. Don't know if thats a correct name however.

Good shot by the way. Much nicer in the download view as usual.

Outstanding Blue Heron. Great contrast against that blue sky. Very sharp capture with a great composition.

Thank you all. I've seen Great Blue Herons before in Michigan, but this guy didn't look like I thought I remembered them.
