Every time I see this bird the light is not good and there are sticks and reeds in the way. Finally he was in an open spot.


This particular Night Heron feeds in the same general location most nights. Typically they are very shy, however he does his best to ignore people.

Also most people can walk right by without noticing anything in the brush.

Gorgeous bird with lovely colouring. Enjoyed your photos!
Thank you. One of the small Herons, and most shy. Except this one of course.
