Black-crowned Night-Heron

Went out to Reifel on Sunday with Audy and had a walk around and renewed our yearly memberships.

At the entrance i was lucky to get one of the 5 night-herons out in the open and took some shots of this cool bird.
Don't know why they choose to winter here but we get them at Reifel every year (i could think of some warmer places to hang out myself)...
