The picture you're looking at is actually a juvenile (a young bird). The grown up bird was there as well and I have photos but honestly, they're not all that cool-looking. The "tiger" part really only describes the juvenile. The adult is kind of dark colored and doesn't look like he's ready for a dance club like this one does...
The Fasciated Tiger Herons live in forested areas with fast moving streams. That made Aguas Calientes, Peru the ideal place to see one. I took this picture on June 18, 2012.
