Quite true, the streaks on the back would be very odd for a Striated Heron
but such an extensive black cap would be very odd for a Yellow Bittern as
would the habitat for a foraging bird. The green legs would be a better fit
for Striated Heron as Yellow Bittern normally would have yellow legs. This
is a hard one.
