Observation details
I was able to photograph this tall, night-heron as it fed on the mudflat with the shorter, plumper Black-crowned Night-Heron. I noted the dark plumage with some white spots on the back, the all dark bill, the rounder cheek part of the head. Another individual is pictured as it flew up onto the myoporum bush near the viewing platform.
