Description
A stocky crow-sized heron. On adults, the wings and back are green mixed with blue-gray. The upper breast, sides of neck, and head are chestnut with a dark blue-green crown that can be raised to a crest when alarmed. In poor lighting, green herons may simply look dark. Young are more heavily streaked on neck and chest and duller and grayer on back. On being disturbed and when flying, its loud sharp call note resembles the harsh sound made by closing rusty scissors.
