Willington brook

We had a classic car show in the village this afternoon and I must admit I was a bit bored and desperate to have a walk with my camera. I decided that while Steve was talking to people about Daisy (his Austin 7), I would take a quick walk to the cycle track which was only a few yards away. There were loads of people milling around so I thought I would take a quick look at the brook as I thought I wouldn't be able to see any birds! Well what did I see but Mr Heron standing in the brook. I was just so pleased to see him as this is a different brook from the one I pass on the way to work. He must be getting about a bit!
Totally awesome capture. Instant fav. I have been trying to photo a Heron for a while.

Great find...maybe there are a few herons around! I like how the ducks didn't want their faces in the picture!
