Excellent work! they're a stunning bird, really unusual looking. I've
only seen one and remember it vividly. I saw it roosting in a tree,
and seeing it look down it's beak at me, with those enormous
penetrating eyes was quite spooky. I'd never really seen the
herons/egrets as hunters before then, but gained a strong appreciation
of how bad it would be to be a frog.
