Yellow-crowned Night Herons

I am absolutely enthralled with the idea of banding all rehab birds. It's not common by any means but a group in Houston, WR&E, participates when it comes to Yellow-crowned Night Herons. They're a fantastic species to observe hunting, and they often congregate in populated areas along the coast (many wading birds prefer undisturbed habitats) so they're ideal for a project like banding.
