A lot of cranes stand that way, I've never read any real explanation as to why. I personally thing they're just showing off.

one legged bird or does it just perch that way?

Quite astonishing actually. They seem to have completely adapted to the urban environment & no longer see humans as a threat. On the other hand, maybe they just enjoy being photographed?

Saturday evening ran across a few black crowned night herons hanging out
in downtown Oakland (8th and Webster). I'd say that one didn't give a

I was able to get close enough to fill the frame at 50mm:
