The White-eared Night-heron, Gorsachius magnificus, is listed as the second class of National Protected Wildlife of China. Here we presented the breeding report of the bird in the Leigongshan National Nature Reserve of Guizhou Province of China. On 18 May 2019, a nest was first found by local people during the nest construction period, which was built on Lithocarpus hancei with twigs and about 7 m above the ground. On 24th July, three nestlings were found at nest and all of them successfully fledged on 12th August. On 17th August, they returned to the nest and stayed there until 2nd September. Based on discovery of the bird at other sites in the reserve, we proposed that there might be at least one or two breeding populations of the White-eared Night-heron in Leigongshan area.
