I was surprised to find this was a heron since I was only aware of it's larger cousin the Great Blue Heron. This Black-crowned Night Heron is a beauty.

The name of this bird is one that i find attractive, and i enjoyed watching one in SC once that sat forever in a swamp waiting for the right bit of food to come along. Yes it does have a lot of patience. You are lucky to live in a place that you see these.

There was no way to get close to them as they perched on rocks mid-river with the rapids swirling all around them. One day as I was wishing I could see them better, one flew up and perched on the fence in front of me, not six feet away, as if he had heard my thoughts. I had no camera, but I've never forgotten the moment. I loved seeing your picture to remind me! They are beautiful birds.
