Why did no one tell me that blue jays are kind of big? (lemmy.world)

I was surprised how big Black-crowned night heron is, back when I saw them for the first time in Zoo. Its my favorite bird in the Wingspan board game, and I guess with their big head and the short neck, I was expected a smallish bird. Boy was I wrong.

I saw one recently at Carolina Beach, and only got a clumsy picture of it, but what a magnificent bird.
