Daniel Sörensen 2 Aug 2025 I think this is an Indian pond heron? The Javan ones have a dark chest generally and are more vibrant, while the Indians are a bit "washed out".

merlin 2 Aug 2025 @Daniel Sörensen It is possible, since there are supposed to be both the species in Zlín. The sign at the aviary mentioned only the Javan one though, but you are probably correct. Unfortunately, I can't change the title of the photo now.
