That is a Chinese Pond Heron. They are migratory. When they arrive, they are mostly brown and white. This one has a maroon head and neck with a blue/grey back, now in its breeding plumage.

It will move on soon as they are migrating north at this time of year.

What you should do is open your pond area to birders and charge them entrance fee, that way you'll offset your lost fish. :run_away:
