Freakish Night Heron (1)
While at some friends' house, I was asked to go to the car for some wipes. (It seems that after a bath, Francesca had been running around without a diaper and had a rather ugly accident.) As I rounded the corner of the car, I was confronted by a large, squawking bird. This young thing already had the slouch of a 70 year old with a walking stick.
I was told it was a young Night Heron. The adults had already continued on their migratory path. This one was probably ill, as he let me get awfully close to him. Sadly, the sun was near setting, and my blogging camera does poorly in low-light situations. As for the flash, I am seldom happy with the results...

Not a Happy Customer

Wow, that thing is SCARY!!! Straight out of Stephen King's Dark Tower series. By the way, I called while you guys were at Batman Begins. How was it?
