To say this yellow-crowned night heron was not impressed with the noise of my shutter would be an understatement.

Have fun,

Phil

    I like the "eyes closed" image. Not sure I have seen one do this (at least when I was within camera range) Love the detail -- down on the bill, etc. thumb.gif

    I really appreciate the comments everyone. Thanks.

    This guy was deep in the mangroves, perched about two feet off the water. I think the last thing it expected to see/hear was an idiot with a noisy camera.

    Have fun,

    Phil
