EDITORS COMMENTS
Trash or Treasure? This Rufous Night Heron knows where the real feast is at! Posing proudly amidst a sea of discarded goodies on Home Island, this adult bird has found its paradise in the unlikeliest of places. Who needs fancy fish when you have a rubbish dump to explore? Known as the Nankeen Night Heron, this feathery scavenger is a regular sight on Cocos (Keeling) Islands, strutting its stuff by day and delighting locals and tourists alike. With its vibrant rufous plumage contrasting against the drab surroundings, it's hard not to be captivated by this avian beauty. While most birds prefer pristine habitats, our hero here shows us that sometimes even garbage can be glamorous. It's like a fashion-forward heron making an eco-friendly statement – reduce, reuse, recycle! This print by Don Hadden captures not only the unique wildlife found on these remote islands but also reminds us of nature's resilience and adaptability. So next time you see trash littered around your neighborhood, remember that there might just be a Rufous Night Heron turning it into their own personal runway. So let's raise our wings to this resourceful heron who proves that one bird's trash truly can be another bird's treasure!
