They are very quick like tui, but they tend to spend most of their time on the dark forest floor or in the lower canopy, so can be tricky to photograph in good light. Bird #67 in 2023 (slowly chugging my way towards 100 species photographed in 2023)."

"The White Faced Heron, was the bird that really set me off and into Bird Photography. A fantastic hunter, and full of grace and stealth, these birds are fantastic to watch. The White Faced Heron led me to the late great Geoff Moon, who was one of the worlds best Bird Photographers. Fortunately Geoff lived in New Zealand! What a gentleman, conservationist and mentor he was.
It was Geoff who stirred my passion for nature, and birds in particular.
Today observing this White Faced Heron at Petone's Hikoikoi Reserve, took me back to my roots. This particular bird didn't disappoint either, taking crab after crab, through guile and instinct, and at speed!"
