Adult. Unmistakable and enigmatic heron. Swamp and mangrove is the habitat it favors, so you have to get into a boat to get it, normally. This newly discovered site houses quite a few individuals, and hopefully the locals will be successful not putting too much pressure on the birds, as more people will come by to see it.

Adult. Number two individual this day. Not particularly shy, but still retreated when the boat approached.
