About 5 pm yesterday on the Whakatane River. A Shag dries his wings. They have to do this periodically as they have no waterproofing due to the fact they spend all their feeding time under the water chasing fish.
A white-faced Heron is on alert.
It is watching an approaching Hawk.
I'm not sure a Hawk would attack a full-grown Heron but I do know that Herons really don't like hawks so this one was off!
