A quick shot of a Black-crowned Night-Heron (Nycticorax nycticorax) in Cheney Creek on 8 May 2017. The long white occipital plumes (originating from the back of the head) are longest in older birds during the breeding season.
P.S. On 19 June 2013, I shared a photo of a younger Black-crowned Night-Heron in the post called "Nesting locally".
