Black-crowned Night-Heron

Day 157 / 365

Why did the heron cross the road?
To prove he wasn’t chicken.

Interesting Fact: The Black-crowned Night-Heron is a patient hunter. It will often stand still and just wait for a frog or other small animals to pass by. They may also hunt by vibrating their bills in the water to lure prey into investigating the disturbance.  ( http://identify.whatbird.com/obj/24/overview/Black-crowned_Night-Heron.aspx )
