Description
Wurdemanns Heron, Ardea wurdemanni, was named after a former Smithsonian Institute collector of the 1850s, Gustavus Wurdemann. The American Ornithologists Union (AOU) - the final judge of bird classification in scientific circles has determined that the Wurdemanns Heron is to be considered another color form of the Great Blue Heron; much to the chagrin of bird watchers. It can only be found in very limited numbers in the Florida Keys, catching his fish and often begging from local fishermen.
