Well...humans don't have very good night vision...so don't blame yourself ...I love this wading shot...

Well..we were very silly as he was first perched really close to us and only when we noticed he flew into the river much farther..but I am still happy we saw it. I only know the sp. name thanks to our birding guie who knows very well his birds :-)
