Heron
2010.10.01
We were just leaving the gardens at RHS Wisley last Saturday when we saw groups of people standing around and staring. When we got closer to the pond we saw why.
|
A grey heron was strutting around
|
and looking at the water.
|
Ready for action
|
He soon dived in and I tried for a shot but all I got was a ripple on the water. He came up with a goldfish in his beak and promptly ate it. I have always wanted to get some heron shots and the zoom on my present camera is prettty good.

Let's hope there were no valuable fish in that pond

Great set - I didn't realise they were tame enough to hang around like that.

There's usually a heron living on an island in Carshalton pond which we often see - it reminds me of Norfolk where we used to see lots of these elegant birds
