When I head out for bird photography, my goal is simple- take photos, rather than videos. Videos require extra gear, a tripod, and a level of dedication I haven't quite developed yet. My enthusiasm for bird photography is high, but my enthusiasm for carrying equipment is considerably lower!

Handheld photography suits me perfectly. No tripod to set up, no extra gear to carry, and no unnecessary exercise!

But every now and then, I encounter a bird with more patience than me.

This Striated Heron was one of them. Perched on a branch, completely unbothered by my presence, it gave me all the time in the world. I took photos, changed angles, took more photos, and eventually ran out of excuses not to record a video.

When the bird is more patient than the photographer, even a lazy photographer can become a videographer.

I didn't bring a tripod, but fortunately, the heron brought its own- an entire tree!
