It's always a gamble when approaching these big birds, as they will fly or let you approach, but here we just got far enough as he/she was just on the cusp of flying, but settled down. Just liked the jaunty HA here.
Can't wait to get back next year, new location for me and hopefully some great sightings, but who knows...
