Yellow-Crowned Night Heron

Nyctanassa violacea

Description:

There was one adult and one immature heron fishing, I believe. The night herons only come when the water is high. The first picture is the adult, the second is the immature heron.

Habitat:

Backyard. The creek had flooded a few days before and the water was still high.
