Who is this fella seething with indignation?
Obligatory don't touch random birds you find, dude filming shouldn't have, but who is this indignant bird?

We were eating dinner at Katie‘s in Galveston and someone pointed out this bird. Nobody knew what it was. I finally got the chance to say “A night heron. It’s always a night heron.”

I read this ghost/yokai story and knew this sub would get a kick out of it! If only it ended a little better for the bird… The luminescent bird yokai called “aosagibi” is typically (always?) a Night Heron and appears in other illustrations. What a cool mythical creature! (I might be biased.)
