Juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron on Perch #1 - November 9, 2016
A juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron was perched on a branch over a stream at the Chincoteague Wildlife Preserve in Northern VA. He did not move at all during the first 5 minutes I watched him. They normally roost during the day and feed at night on fish and rodents. The adults are white with a black cap and back and red eye - totally different than this drab brown and white with orange eye.
