Another Hutt Estuary favourite - white-faced heron
The white-faced heron, aka matuku moana, is another favourite of mine from the Hutt Estuary at the river mouth. My very first photos when I got my new camera were of these guys as they tend to stand still while you work out how to focus the camera. There are normally two or three down there at any time, strutting around gracefully or stalking the little fish. This shot is taken in the early evening when the light gets all goldeny.
