2016 Wildlife Photo Contest

Night Heron , Tortola, British Virgin Islands
Night Heron on a day’s rest in the Caribbean

Species: Night Heron | Location: Tortola, British Virgin Islands

While generally sleeping during the day, this Night Heron found the activities in a marina in Tortola too interesting and sat quietly on the bow pulpit of our neighboring boat, observing everything with great interest. I feel so lucky for getting this shot.
