Black-crowned night heron on watch

An adult black-crowned night heron keeps watch

I saw this adult black-crowned night heron in a watchful pose on the edge of the lagoon behind the beach at Kawaihae. I liked how the stick matches the heron’s colors. It looks like it could be the antenna of the heron’s fish detector instrument.

  They seem to do pretty well even without the fish detectors!
