I'm not sure what kind of Heron this is. It was taken in Southeast Michigan.

Juvenile black-crowned night heron would be my guess.

Nice looking shot!

Juvenile black crowned night heron will look like this when it's an adult? If this is a adult black crowned night heron.

I'd go with Juvie BCNH as well. And yes, that's what his dad or mom would look like. :)

Yours is a juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron. This is what a juvenile Green Heron looks like...
