Description

When: March 31, 2019

Where: Natura ARTIS Magistra Amsterdam, The Netherlands


There's something positively spooky about these Birds. It's in the eyes and that beak, which, at the same time, are very intriguing.


Species: Black-Crowned Night Heron (Kwak)

Latin name: Nycticorax Nycticorax

Originates from nearly most parts of the world, except in the coldest regions and Australasia.

Current status: Least Concern

Did you know:

… The Night Heron’s Latin name means “night raven”, which refers to their largely nocturnal feeding habits and croaking crow-like calls.

It looks like a white raven.
Not spooky at all. It’s probably one of the smarter species of birds there is.
