Shitepokes
Oh my goodness. After reading the discussion about bird names and descriptions that sometimes do not match....I became curious about why my family in southeastern Ohio called the Great Blue Heron, a "Shitepoke".
I found a great narrative on this topic at:

This is a photographer, naturalist and artist who lives in the Appalachian Mountains in southern Ohio.....I think you might enjoy the story. I sure did.
