Daytime Hideaway - Black-crowned Night-Heron

16 inches wide x 20 inches high

The Black-crowned Night-Heron is one of the few species of herons in the United States that is a night time or dusk hunter. Most of our species of herons are seen in the daylight hours while the night-herons tend to roost in trees during the day. They are not conspicuous and it often takes patience to discover their daytime hiding places.
