This bird is almost never seen in the US. Birders are flocking to see it in Maine.

An extremely rare sighting of a gray heron in Maine has brought hundreds of birders to the state. The gray heron, commonly found in Europe, Asia and Africa, was spotted for the first time in the state on Cape Elizabeth, according to Maine Audubon.

Hitchcox said he saw about 200 bird watchers on Oct. 19, many from neighboring states like Massachusetts, Connecticut and New York.
