I have noticed there are very few posts from Ontario.
So I will take up some of the slack. Recently started picking up the camera again and wandering the Ontario parks. Try to post one a day.
Here an 'American Bittern' that I found in a tree at 'Rotary Park' in Ajax.

Is that not a young Night Heron as opposed to American Bittern?

Just double checked Pat. You are indeed correct. This is a Night Heron.
Which would make sense as I found it in the same area I found an adult
Night Heron. I have attached the photo.
I feel silly now. But that's why we have these forums.
