Great series, amazing place to visit.

I didn't realise Black-crowned Night Heron was a world-wide species until now - Asia, North and South America, Europe and Africa - only Australasia missing.

Geoff, THX. Most birds in the southern South America and Falkland Islands are very tame. So, people without good photo-taking skill (like me) should be able to take good bird photos.
