Hi Wilson

You're right about the species ID for both, but the night heron is a juvenile.

It's always surprised me how tame the night heron is in Taiwan and how elusive in HK.

Cheers

i am pretty convinced that he is a male .. whether breeding adult i do not know .. he was clearly dancing about and singing to the female up in the trees .. or if really a juvenile .. calling for his mother to feed him, .. but then why the dancing and flapping of the wings?
