Capturing the Flight of Night Herons

I was in my cabin on a cruise ship in the middle of the Caribbean Sea when I spotted a flock of yellow‑crowned night herons (Nyctanassa violacea) flying alongside us—matching the ship’s direction and speed, gliding almost level with my balcony. I spent several excited minutes photographing them, amazed at how close they stayed. I’m pretty sure this was the first image I posted from the ship that same day. I kept wondering where they were headed—somewhere south, I think—and how long they had been flying over open ocean.

It’s out of focus, but this yellow crowned night heron was moshing by the river. I need to remember to go down to the riverbanks. There’s a whole animal parade at sunset. #birds #herons #nature #river
