Javan Pond Heron, Cinnamon Bittern, White-winged Tern and more (video)
The Javan Pond Heron staying since late August was still feeding with no sign of wariness.
Cinnamon Bitterns are dispersing — this year's fledglings are turning up all over the place. Many individuals are crossing roads, and I have witnessed two traffic casualties in the past month.
One White-winged Tern was mixed in with a flock of Whiskered Terns.
