We joked on packing up that we could have chucked bricks at this and it would still have sat there so full was it - or maybe it had just had enough of the cold water ........

Chuck bricks at it? With that menacing eye and hooked beak, you would need to make sure you could escape to safety quick enough! Super shot though - really shows up the detail so clearly.

Thanks guys: we had been out pre dawn in search of 'night critters' and failed so seeing this bird snoozing in lovely dawn light it just had to be attempted - in fact it wasn't bothered at all - I suppose when nothing bad happened after we had crept up on it - then it didn't feel the need to be afraid when we packed stuff away and walked gently back past it!
