This Black-crowned Night Heron has become a regular at Angler’s Cove at the start of the Ferrari Pond Trail. On Monday, during my first walk over there in two weeks, the Black-crowned Night Heron and the Great Blue Heron were both standing on the spillway to greet me but I didn’t bring a camera because I was recharging batteries. And of course right after I passed them, a Red-shouldered Hawk flew in front of me, low across the trail and into an Oak Tree where he perched in perfect view while eating a frog or some other amphibious critter. I took a short iPhone video but quickly gave up, vowing to always have my camera with me. So, Tuesday morning, camera slung around my neck, when I arrived at Angler’s Cover just after sunrise, the GBH was absent and the Red-shouldered Hawk was not eating breakfast when I passed by the Oak Tree but the Black-crowned Night Heron was in a much better place on the rocks than he had been the day before. You gotta love those red eyes.
