Charlie, an excellent shot. The partly blurred water is great, but the thoughtful expression on the BCNH's face is the best part of the image.

Hi Charlie, you mentioned: "Black-Crowned Night Heron...he sure was fun to watch"
Did he try to do some fishing in that fast moving water? Looks like it is moving fast enough to sweep him away.
Sharp eye, good exposure and composition.

Its only 24 hours since your last bird post Charlie! I did remind you when you posted your Pheasants last night that it was 48 hours in between posts in this Forum .

It is a nice image, and we do enjoy seeing your pictures, but please stick to the guidelines like everyone else, that's the only fair way for all of us. :)

I'd like to see him trying to grab a fish out of that water :)

Nice shot Charlie.
