They really were rather close to the ground; one alighted briefly on a house before rejoining the others. We're not that experienced with ID'ing herons at dusk; but the feet did seem to project completely beyond the tail, and the profile looked closer to the Yellow-crowned than it did the pictures of the other small herons.
