I photographed this Night Heron at the St. Augustine Allifator Farm back in December. This summer I'll be spending my nights researching their feeding patterns.

Great image. An elegant pose for a not-so-elegant bird.

I love it!

The colors are jussssst right. It seems worst with herons.... their colros are hard to get spot on-- and you've got it exact!

Congrats, and enjoy them skeeters while you're watching night herons
