Squacco Heron ( breeding)
If you knew what I was up against to achieve this, Im more than happy. I came up to this waterway in my car driving very slowly, as there is always some birdlife in this area. As I looked down towards the water, this squacco heron was perched on the rock. The whole area is under overhanging trees, taken early morning with just about no sunlight. This is also my first image of one of these guys. I also had to deal with trying to shoot him between bits of foliage. Taken in a small nature reserve close to my house.
