Description
Black-crowned Night-Herons are small herons with rather squat, thick proportions. They have thick necks, large, flat heads, and heavy, pointed bills. The legs are short and, in flight, barely reach the end of the tail. The wings are broad and rounded.
Adults are light-gray birds with a neatly defined black back and black crown. Immature's are brown with large white spots on the wings and blurry streaks on the underparts. Adults have all-black bills; immature"s have yellow-and-black bills.
South Carolina, USA.
Thank you for looking at my Photography!!!
