What was the post related to? Do you remember the question? Was the bird a parrot, or something else?

I seem to remember a Great Blue Heron. Was that it?

@syz I don’t, unfortunately. I think the link may have lead to a page called something like “I love evolution”...but I’m not sure. The bird was pretty big, looked a little like an ostrich. Long neck, beautiful eyes, and it had an unusual name. That’s all I can recall.
@janbb No, that’s not it. Thanks for looking, though.

Hmm, the only blue ratite that I know of is the cassowary

(Another subspecies)

Does it have anything to do with this thread?

Could it have been on this thread? There’s a big blue bird (a shoebill) on the link that I added (WTF, evolution?), but I’m not sure I’d call it beautiful…

The only large, blue birds with long necks that are coming to mind are the Heron or a Peacock. Could it possibly be a Peacock?

Ah, thanks, everyone. I’d have answered, but I’ve been without internet for a while. It was definitely somewhere on the page @glacial posted. Thanks for that, @glacial. Pretty sure I’ll find it now.

You are most welcome. Do let us know which bird it ends up being! :)
