A juvenile Yellow-crowned Night Heron walked around our lawn and flower garden
from 7:30 - 8:15 AM today. It was feeding on cricket-sized insects, averaging
about 1 per second.
Long neck with narrow sharp streaks, small white spots and hint of white edge
on wings, long legs. Yellow iris rather than red.
Our yard is dry, with woods along the back. Our neighbor has a 2000 sq ft pond
just across the fence, which attracts Great Blue and Green Herons. The Y-c
Heron walked in from that direction,
