Purple Gallinule Just Hanging Out!

Found this guy yesterday at the Sweetwater Wetlands Park. It was just hanging out in the reeds. A lot of people thought that it might be sitting on eggs, but it finally moved enough to see that there was nothing underneath. Not a bird that I see around here. Just wish I could have gotten a little more of it in the picture, but the reeds were blocking off the back tail feathers.
Interesting looking head, if they wear a mask. Maybe she is trying out a potential nest?

A beautiful clear shot of this gallinule. You have captured the slight iridescence of the feathers beautifully.
