Yep, a bec croche is the french name for a white or a glossy ibis and a
gros bec is the french name for a night heron or a Louisiana heron.
The old timers used to kill and eat both of these. They are protected now but they probably need to start eating the bec croches again, there are thousands of those goobers.
