Grey Heron on Braemar Duckpond

Grey Heron on Braemar Duckpond
Another walk on the outskirts of Braemar in Scotland brings us to its duckpond. As it borders on wild countryside many wild animals and birds frequent it. This heron flew away moments later after swallowing its caught fish.

Enjoy full screen.

This was a surprisingly big pond Joe. We spotted the heron and was happily snapping (and my wife videoing) it when we also spied a deer on the other edge of the pond too. Glad you liked it.
Cheers, Herb

Although this was very wild looking this way, behind me was a small road and a few residential houses with children playing too. We paint the picture as we want with our lenses perhaps.

Interesting! There are some users who have uploaded heron pics in the last days.
Wonderful!

Herb Riddle club has replied to polytropos club
Ah yes Poly, I see that sometimes too -lots of people uploading similar photos -especially of flowers, of that season. It is sheer co-incidence for me with this but perhaps it is the time at the moment for more members to be walking in the countryside and seeing these majestic creatures. Glad you liked it. ~ Herb
