Taken at Ding Darling, FL. Light was harsh as it was mid afternoon but seeing this yellow crowned? night heron hunting by the side of the drive I couldn't resist. Got quite a crowd around me, though strangely, watching me, watching the bird!
Added canvas to the left and removed part of the stick middle right (still keeping the natural history of the image)
Thanks for the honest critique chaps. Apart from the light angle, I didn't dare go left as I'd already been warned by a park official about gators and me being to close to the water. Would have loved to have the feet also but this was the first night heron in three years visiting FL I'd seen awake! lol
