Eileen,
A beautiful picture of this Black Crowned Night Heron standing up to it's breast in flowing water as it keeps it's eyes fixed on something ahead of it maybe breakfast busy swimming by!
Beautiful composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Comment from Kaymart
A nice shot. I don't really see how the title fits...? But it's a great shot nonetheless. I can even see the red of his eyes. Nice placement, as well (in the water).
