Caught this juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron enjoying a meal on my vacation in Maui 2 weeks ago. Photos were taken at Kealia Pond. Hope you enjoy the story and I'd like to thank all of you who post your photos here for the inspiration! Apologies for the # of photos but he was very accommodating. Happy Imaging!

Had to stop at 10 but he got it all down. Thanks for looking!

Thank you gentlemen. He was on that perch the whole time I was at the pond. I passed him on the way out and the appetizer photos were taken then. The dinner hour photos were taken about two hours or so after on my return. Really appreciate the feedback!

Very enjoyable series. You have to wonder how they can swallow something that big. This bird shouldn't be hungry again for a long time - unless it's a teenager.LOL
