Capped Heron (Pilherodius pileatus) - 20Aug2022

The Capped Heron has a seemingly huge range in South America but is pretty hard to find.  So it was especially cool to find a trio of them that didn't flush while boating around the river systems in the Pantanal.  The blue facial skin is quite striking and makes this a very elegant looking heron.
