For the past four years a Yellow-Crowned Night Heron. Has been showing up every April for a month or so. With a nice lake behind the house, here in Florida. This bird sits in the street or yard of this one house and just stares at the house. May take a little walk about the block, but for most part stares at house. There are no colors, or anything we can see that would catch its attention,that we see. If anyone has seen this behavior before or can help me understand what it's doing. It would be appreciated. Four years , it has become a puzzle and a challenge. Thankyou

We live in Long Beach, Long Island, New York and have a pair mating and building a nest in the Sycamore tree in front of our house. We were told of an additional nest located about a mile or so away in the west end. Large salt water marshes surround this this barrier island to the north where they must feed. Not such a southern bird after all.

Had what I think is a yellow crowned Night-heron on my back porch a few minutes ago. I looked exactly like the picture found on the home page, except, this one had long tail feathers. I thought that those were for mating plumage.

I live in Orange, Texas. we havea family of these birds living in our trees and they are beautiful and LOUD. . . They showed up in 2005 after Hurricane Rita and have never left. They chase the squirrels away and wreak havoc on the paint job of our vehicles with their droppings. BUT I would not change one thing, because they are wonderful to look at

I am working as security guard north central Austin. Strange bird shows up, is it a crane? no an Egrit? Try crain again, look up photos and walla, it is the Yellow Crowned night Heron. Out about an hour or so after dark, prancing around the parking lot picking stray crickets and other insects. Can get up to about 20 feet from it, but thats all. All Meduim grey, wing front edge darker. White beneath the eye and on top of the head, and a bit of a 'plume' or whatever you call it from back of head.

I live on the busiest street in Burleson Texas and one of these were on my porch during the day and later the same evening it was in my yard standing on a rock in my front yard. I took a picture of him and found him on this website to see what kind of bird he was because it was very unusual to see him in the city. Two days prior I noticed him across the street and he was so out of his element and odd looking it caught my eye. I hope he finds his home.
