Watershed Surprise

There is a man-made watershed near where I stay which I do not visit often enough though it is just across the road.


Today, as I took the photo above, I saw something white moving towards me. 




Is this a heron?


Recently, I traveled to a Nature Park, paid entry tickets, walk a few miles and climbed up towers to watch migratory birds.
I failed to take a single decent shot of any bird.

At home, this white heron just walked right towards me!
It must have thought I was part of the landscape.




See its reflection in the muddy water?
It came so close that there was no need for zoom lens; not that I have any.
I was hoping that the bird would come close enough for me to take a macro shot of its eyes...


Fat hopes ... for now.
Maybe next time.
