Green Heron at the Sunken Gardens

We visited the Sunken gardens recently. This is an and utterly beautiful botanical garden. The highlight for me was when I sat down on a stone ledge and looked over to see who was sitting next to me. It was this guy who I had to look up later to know is a green heron.

He regarded me casually and then launched himself at a fish in the pond with the speed and precision of a duck out of water.
