Nice focus on the eyes too. Looks like you caught them at a still moment. Very fun, Mark.

The serrated beak and neck are clearly distinguishing features.

Good eye for seeing alternate possibilities. Vern may want to add some of these to his heron gallery. ;)

No,.......... These aren't the biters, these are the spitters. Even more dangerous.

Be careful getting too close, I hear they have a nasty bite!
