Ardea melanocephala
Occurs across sub-Saharan Africa, from Senegal to Ethiopia south to southern Africa, where it is common in Zimbabwe and South Africa while more scarce in Namibia, Botswana and Mozambique. It generally favours open grassy habitats, sometimes moving into marshes and floodplains in southern Mozambique.
Spotted at the Austin Roberts Bird Sanctuary
