Black Crowned Night Heron (in explore)

Black-crowned Night-Herons often spend their days perched on tree limbs or concealed among foliage and branches. However this fine morning, this individual was in the water, hunting for breakfast....successfully. Generally seen around the water's edge, I was surprised when he flew from a perch, landed in the water and hunted in the middle of the shallow pond.
