Looks like me poking my nose out of the blankets to see whether it's too cold to get out of bed yet.
Wow they're interesting looking birds! Just look at the intent stare on him. Brilliant shots shorty.

Gee guys! Didn't you know? There is a rare mutation of the Nankeen Night Heron in Canberra, its called the White Faced Night Heron... Its being considered for elevation to species status, but is in danger from bird photographers who roam around the place taking indecently good photos of the local raptors. Shame on you all for correcting Shorty!
Nice photos, they're hard things to get close to. I like the fourth one, its interesting and you don't usually see them from behind (because they're watching you!).
