Javan Pond Heron
Javan Pond Heron

When I first spotted it, it appeared to be foraging for food, tucked into the patch of grass visible in the background. Its behaviour is no different from a Chinese Pond Heron. The Chinese Pond Heron I found the other day was extremely wary, but this Javan Pond Heron does not seem to be particularly so.
