Last week I spotted a juvenile yellow-crowned night heron in my front yard, and got enough photos for a good ID (from the car, where I rolled down the window but didn't move much at all so it wouldn't leave). I'm always pleased that my yard is wild and welcoming enough that birds like this will move from the woods across the road to the yard to continue their grazing on bugs and such. I have a lot of toads and lizards and snakes, and some of them may also be lost to the birds, but that's what happens in a healthy yard.

Here's one of them from Wikimedia.
