Heron watching his step

This bird is walking very carefully across this branch in the Tempisque River in Palo Verde National Park. Why? Tomorrow I will show you a photo that I took exactly 12 seconds after I took this photo. It will show why this bird has a very good reason not to make a misstep on this log.

    Uh oh! I hope it isn't going to be eaten by something lurking in that water.

    Wow, a little tight-rope walker. I have a guess of what is below, but I'll wait and see tomorrow.

    That is exactly how I would look if I was trying to cross some water on a log.
