I live in an apartment in Reno, NV. On the area of our apartment complex we have these birds that kept annoying me recently almost every night. I got some shots of one of them (also attached, but just one); I hope they are really helpful to you.

Could someone please tell me what the name of this kind of bird is, English or Latin, don't matter?

Looks like a Black-crowned Night Heron.

Agreed, I'd say juvenile Black-Crowned Night Heron. May I ask how they are annoying you? These guys generally aren't too vocal unless disturbed.

I agree, a Black-crowned Night-Heron, Nycticorax nycticorax ("Night Raven").
