Yellow Crowned Night Heron At Anna Maria Island City Pier Royalty-Free Stock Image

It was only a matter of time for Anna Maria Island to become a bustling island paradise filled with trade, incredible fishing, and local attractions. One of the island’s most defining features is the Anna Maria Island City Pier, which was recently closed due to Hurricane Irma for reconstruction. I came here in the pitch dark of the night before the dawn, This pier now has stream lights and it makes a whole new appearance at night when the whole pier is lit up. To my surprise there's a Yellow Crowned Night Heron sitting on a pilon waiting for the sun to rise!
