Observation details
Large brown striped heron. Neck boldly striped white and dark brown, yellow green legs and yellowish bill. Yellow eye. Throat white with dark brown stripe down the center. Brown mottled back, prominent black malar stripe 3-4” flaring at bottom. Watched it for almost 30 minutes and the first time we’ve ever observed one preening. Watched it creep down the log to do some fishing and creeping back. Stood totally erect with bill up when geese flew over and seemed to be agitated whenever the Mallards got to close. Watched it blow up its neck and raise a set of feathers on its neck just below its head, at the same time raising its head abruptly several times.
