Yellow Crowned Night Heron!

Think this is a young one. Had spotted it in a tree at first and then it flew down to the waters edge and that made it harder to find. Had to get down on the knees and shoot between the railing of the walkway, to get a mostly clear shot.

It is a good pov for this young bird. They are really pretty.

Well worth the effort.
