Can anyone help ID this bird in Ermones, Corfu. Maybe purple heron but unsure. Sorry for bad photo taken in a rush on my iPhone. Many thanks :)

Yeah all of the larger herons/egrets can do that. It looked thinner necked in the original video grab and the upperwing contrast wasn't obvious if it was just as a result of the freeze frame, but the video shows the upperwing contrast is consistent.
