Weird... lol (Picture included)?

Question

Okay so this morning I didn't go to bed till 5am. But my bf woke me up at 6am to put my dog in her cage cuz someone needed in the backyard to go through the garage and in the house to install carpet at like 8am and we would be sleeping then.

So I got up and went out there and there was this huge bird with green feet on the fence. So I put my dog in her cage and got my bf and I took a pic lol. My dog was barking and growling at it. haha

Anyone know what kind of bird it is?
