When we visited Mukteswar Temple at Bhubaneshwar I spotted Indian Pond Heron with breeding plumage on the top of tree.
During the breeding season it looks stunning due to change of its colors. It has a deep maroon and brownish golden plumage at breeding time. Red legs and lanceolate plume at the back of the head complete the transformation.
