It looks like a Sandhill Crane, per the internet, but without the red head cap.

Looks like a great blue heron to me, but it's hard to be sure because of the low resolution and exposure.

Sandhill Cranes have a red face and forehead.

It looks like a great blue heron to me. Sandhill cranes are grey or brown with orange eyes and a red unfeathered patch on their heads.
