During a photography trip last year in the Summer, Stefan took several pictures of me at the Inn river in Upper Austria near the German border. We visited this place for a bird and wildlife tour in summer and even though it was more or less hot we were able to get some nice shots. These pictures where take just after sunrise while we were waiting for the white tailed eagle to show up. It didn't show up on this day, but we were lucky with several other birds that could be found there.

Last year we where able to take several pictures of the night herons flying above the Power Plant and the water reservoir in front of the water power plant. I only was able to take some inflight pictures of the night heron last year, this year I was lucky and also found a tree where they are resting. The night herons are territorial so they come back to one place again and again. So I need to take a further look if this is really a sleeping spot that I found there. Unfortunateley they are also pretty shy so when they see you they fly away. I probably need to try it with better camouflage next time.
