Description
23-34" (58-86 cm). A secretive, medium-sized, streaked brown
heron. Outer wing appears blackish brown in flight, contrasting with
lighter brown of inner wing and body. At close range adults show long
black stripe down side of throat. Young night-herons are similar but
stockier, with shorter necks and more rounded wings without dark tips;
they lack the secretive habits of bitterns.
Very difficult to see.
