This is a Pond-Heron. There are two types of Pond-Herons mostly seen; Chinese and Javan. Even our expert guide could not tell which of those two species this one, and many other ones, were. In their non-breeding plumage they are identical, however when we traveled north, the difference was more apparent (in breeding season there). I randomly assigned this as a Chinese Pond-Heron, even though it is impossible to know if that is right, or if it is a Javan.
