Observation details
Wee heron with light yellow eyes and oversized yellowish legs. It was whitish on the front of the neck and breast, with orangey tan vertical stripes. Crown and back were dark purplish-blue, with the sides of the neck and face a buffy orange. In flight, the primaries and secondaries were grayish-blue, with orange-brown coverts. Saw it on the western edge of the pond, a bit north of where Sanborn Road ends. The few times I’ve seen these they were always hunched down, so this one looked a little bigger than expected with its neck extended, especially from a distance.
