About These Birds
Agami Heron
The Agami Heron is a near-threatened, strikingly patterned wading bird with a wingspan of about 55 cm and a weight of around 528 g. It inhabits shaded forest streams and swampy areas in Central and South America, where it stands motionless before striking with its exceptionally long, sharp bill.
Dwarf Bittern
The Dwarf Bittern (Ixobrychus sturmii) is a small heron of the family Ardeidae endemic to sub-Saharan Africa. It is the smallest heron found regularly in Africa, measuring approximately 25–30 cm in total length — smaller even than the Least Bittern of the Americas. Adults are dark slate-gray above, including the crown, neck sides, and upperparts, while the underparts are pale buff to whitish with dark brown streaking along the center. The wings show a rufous wing patch visible in flight. …
