This heron mixed with little egrets ( Egretta garzetta) and other species of egrets or herons, wading and feeding in water or roosting on the islet. White faced heron is a straggler in China because it doesn′t migrate and only distributes in Australia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea and New Caledonia. There was no record of white faced heron in China,and therefore, this finding is the first one. This new record makes the total species of egret in China increase to seven.The investigation methods,morphological characteristics and ecological habits for the white faced heron were presented in this paper.
