The Heron was on a beach near Baltra, shame about the background (the only two abandonned beach huts in the entire chain of islands happened to be in shot!).

Both excellent shots Neil. You got to wonder how a Great Blue Heron ever made it to those islands though. He looks just enough different to have been there for generations.
