A pair of herons


Herons have been seenhere regularly but not frequently over the last couple of years. In the last couple of weeks there has been a number of sightings, which concerns me a bit because there are still one or two small moorhen chicks around. However yesterday at around five o'clock I was amazed to see two herons flying past the open back door. My rushed picture (apologies for the quality) was the first time I have managed to get a heron on film as they always fly away when spotted. On returning at 10:30pm we again disturbed two herons who were close to our back door. I am puzzling as to what they were up to.
