A disputed Heron (1 Viewer)

Hi all.

This heron was sighted on June, 3rd.

I ID'd it as Purple - Ardea purpurea (I also think it's a juvenile bird), but a local birding site rejected my ID.

I think the elongated bill excludes Gray heron, which would be the other possible option.

What do you think?

Thanks in advance.
