By my reckoning it's a Striated Heron or mangrove heron, but they seem to come in a wide range of markings!
This little guy was quite patient with me, watching me fiddle with no telephoto lens, while keeping a weather eye out for a fish as well.

A completely different kind of bird than I'm used to. Very distinctive!
