They don't seem to have such long necks as some herons, do they Stanley (or is it just the way he's standing)?

A superb picture you've got of this guy my friend, an excellent job that.
 
Wonderful pose and setting, Stanley. A great image.
 
OH my Goodness, beautiful. I think I'm gonna have to talk to my husband about birding across the border. Thank you so much for sharing.
