If the critter had a large flat tail it's a beaver.
But it's most likely a nutria. They have a long skinny tail.

And I've been told they are also good with bacon.

Grosbec (Night Heron) I'm told there good with bacon but don't get caught.

No, not a Grosbec (crooked beak). Too small for a Blue Heron. I agree, some type of Heron. Definitely a bird. Definitely.

Never mind. Department of Wildlife does call this one a Grosbec.

White Ibis is what we call grosbec. Instead of big beak, we say crooked beak. Pretty birds.

We have those everywhere here. During some times if the year they're in large groups.
They taste good

I have no clue.
I think they are just a dark color fat thing.
@casportpony might be able to tell.

Have you seen any black Swedish ducks? They're all black expect for a large white spot on their crop and chest.
The males will have a shiny green head.
The ducklings look like Black Swedish or maybe Cayuga. I saw some of those for sure.

Two cayugas (drake and duck), a pekin, rouen drake, two Indian runners, and a Chinese goose.
And a muscovy in the background.

Steal them all

That's actually the location of Cypress Duck Farm, where DW gets her Marans.

It may be local to South Louisiana, Cajun term. https://www.louisianasportsman.com/... folks who don,the yellow-crowned night heron.
We have them nesting in the Live Oak trees in front of the house since Hurricane Katrina. It's fun as long as the nest is not above your car.
