Amazon Basin. They are also common in all of Europe, India, much of South-east Asia, and you can find them in select regions of Africa. The only thing special about this Black-crowned Night-heron is the location, in Queen Elizabeth National Park, in south central Uganda\u2026and even that would not be special if I lived there, or visited more than every few years. \ud83d\ude42 Still. Nice bird, and this one was photographically cooperative. Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications.
