p.1 #1 · Yellow-crowned night heron Action

It has been a great year for Yellow-crowned night herons at the Marine Nature Study Area in Oceanside, NY. Every direction I look I see one and somehow there are still crabs.

Comments and suggestions welcome,

Morris

Great shots, Morris!
Love that last shot -- it's amazing to me that they have no problem swallowing crustaceans with pinchers!

#3 - looks like his eye membrane is half-engaged. Very neat.
