a heron in migration (Nycticorax nycticorax)

The herons when I am in migration distinguish themselves from the local for the habits. The first when I am tired are always to the covered one to rest. This seemed actual tired.

He found a quite busy place to have his rest... maybe he felt safer among all those twigs! :-O If he planned to make things difficult for the photographer, he failed because you got a very beautiful and detailed picture of him! I love this Night-Heron of yours, Luigi, with his beautiful eye of blood! Gorgeous picture, great work!!! :t: :clap: :loveme:
