This Yellow Crowned Night Heron was in the same location for three days. I guess it moved a little since I was able to get these.

Caught it closing/opening it third eyelid

Just to show its eye is okay

Interesting perspective.

I got there about 10 minutes to late. He was bellowing. I could hear him when I was in the parking lot and a few more times along the way. Some folks got great shots of him rising out of the water when he bellowed.

Friday at Wako

I'm not really happy with these. The reflection is better. Shooting towards the sun.
