Ardeola ralloides

Squacco Heron - this migratory heron hunts in fresh water localities. They feed on fish, frogs and insects. rare in Britain and Ireland. Identification could be mistaken in flight as the underparts are white. In recent years, the species has again shown population increases in south Europe - in Spain, Italy and south France. I saw these herons in the S'Albufera region of Majorca and El Clot reserve in Spain .
