...have you ever been a passenger in a vehicle on a long-haul drive? At some point, maybe after a lunch stop, feeling comfy when you step back in the car, ready for the new scenery ahead.
The sun is shining through the glass and suddenly, your eyelids start feeling like they've got lead sinkers on them. You try so hard to keep focused; but in the end it's easier to succumb!
I think this is where the White-faced Heron is going. Taken late afternoon, this week, down by the Wyong River.
....going, g-o-i-n-g
Beautiful bird-post, great photowork!

ReplyDeleteIt's not often you see that happen Carole. Birds sem able to "sleep" with their eyes open, so to catch that series on camera is probably fairly unique.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos Carole.

Haha! This is fantastic! Your comments capture the mood perfectly.
ReplyDeleteIt would make an awesome Facebook meme!
Such a great, and fun, series of photos!!

Absolutely wonderful captures Carole. It's interesting to see they don't sleep like most birds??
ReplyDeleteOh how funny. I love it when little kids do the (sleep fighting thing like that) but I've never seen a bird do it until now.
