There were two herons, actually - and a load of mud flats....
The one on the island to my left, was closest - but the one at a distance dead centre was the one I spotted first.
The nearest one appeared to be taking up a yoga pose...
Maybe not.... Off I wandered.
Along with plenty of autumnal color as a backdrop, I found my Bewick swan family relaxing on the far bank.
There were Silvertag and Orangetag with their three youngsters, observing from a distance.
I was patient and stayed to watch. Eventually each of the quintet spotted me - and either ignored me or looked wonderingly 'was that that woman who kept standing watching them, again?'
That's a beautiful spot. And those swans practically glow.
ReplyDeletecannot wait to see my swan famille again!
