Daytime Hideaway - Black-crowned Night-Heron
20 inches high x 16 inches wide

“The Black-crowned Night-Heron is one of the few species of herons in the United States that is a night time or dusk hunter. Most of our species of herons are seen in the daylight hours while the night-herons tend to roost in trees during the day. They are not conspicuous and it often takes patience to discover their daytime hiding places.”
