| View Cart ⇗ | Info

“The most typical forms of Ardea (Common Heron) are large slaty-coloured birds, varied by black, rufous, and white, the head being commonly darker and lower parts striped; while two slender occipital plumes are, in most cases, developed in the nuptial period, and the scapular and jugular feathers are elongated, though not decomposed.” A. H. Evans, 1900
