Yellow-Crowned Night Heron

we were lucky that it was a weekend morning, and we were out on the deck with our coffee, when we noticed this night heron in our backyard. He was perched on the power line that runs through the middle of a big Live Oak tree just over our fence. We figure he stayed out too late and couldn't get home on time. We checked on him all day, and he shifted around a little, and hid more behind some branches, but didn't leave all day. I thought he might fly when the sun started going down, but he waited till dark- in the morning he was gone (and he hasn't come back)
he does look a little sleepy
