在台灣中文書找到最接近是黑鷺,但都只是深灰色!!
終於在英文鳥書見到一樣的,叫"little blue heron"
全黑光身,所表和size同百鷺一樣~對嗎?

Did you take this photo in HK?? because Little Blue Heron only occurs in America, and have a rather purplish neck. The bill and face of a Little Blue Heron is also blue whcih does not match with the photo you have here.
This bird in your photo is a Pacific Reef Egret, which can be seen in HK coastal waters. To identify this bird, note the dark grey body, white throat and greenish yellow legs, the bill of a Reef Egret will only be orange when breeding. If you see a dark small grey heron or egret flying out at see, you can be sure it is a Pacific Reef Egret. 
Happy Birding!!
