Juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron
The night herons seem to have taken over our backyard while we were shut in due to the rain (or escaping it in Florida). Here's two photos of the juvenile. His colors are starting to change.
The house wrens seem to have abandoned their nest in the duck house. Maybe they didn't like the herons using it as a fishing perch.
