The Purple Heron (Ardea purpurea) is a wading bird in the heron family Ardeidae, breeding in Africa, central and southern Europe, and southern and easternAsia. The European populations are migratory, wintering in tropical Africa; the more northerly Asian populations also migrate further south within Asia.
