Interesting plumage. It’s a Heron of some sort with it’s neck tucked in?

A green heron.

Kumana National Park, Sri Lanka
29th December, 2021

With the sun already setting and local law stating that national parks must be exited by sunset itself, we rounded a corner and found our passage blocked. It was clear that we were going to be late.

How did you get your camera body THAT low to the ground without getting out of your vehicle??

Great shots!!

Thanks, Inspeqtor! Nice appreciation.

I was helped by rising ground giving the illusion of being low down as you can see from the wider perspective shot shown below.
In reality I was shooting over the cab of a Mahinda Bolero like the white one from an earlier safari at a different nature reserve.
