Not the greatest of photographs, it was snapped from a moving vehicle as I drove down a track next to the main drain. The grey heron stood watching but of course decided to take flight as soon as I was anywhere near and off he flapped like a great old pterodactyl.
They are magnificent birds, grey herons, and for me it's always a pleasure to see one. He was propably hunting for voles on the banks of the newly cut banks of the main drain.
Wow, must have been great to see him so close!
ReplyDeleteLucky you to see one that close. I occasionally see one flying over the allotments on it's way from/to the nearby ecology park pond. xx
