Heron

Look what landed just a few minutes ago in the larix. He had an eye on the fish in my pond but we had our eyes on him. He looks nice in the last sun though.

Jacqueline, such a great shot. He definitely looks great standing there .

[Monique]

Ahh, wij zien ze niet zo vaak zo hoog zitten, genoeg slootjes en kanalen hier. Mooi

[Jacqueline]

@ludwigsdiana Lol, no we haven’t that’s why we were on high alert. The heron sat on a very thin branch so he was busy to keepers balance;)
@kgolab Thank you Keren!
@momamo slootkanten en langs de vijver of op het dak.......maar zo’n dunne boomtak ;)

He is so pretty! I hope to put a pond in my place this summer as well.

@farmreporter I can only advice you to do a big one ( if you have the space) Mine is approximately 8 x 8 meters. And I have to do almost notting to the water quality. I have lots of oxygen plants in the water and lots of fish, frogs, toads and damselflies

Great capture with beautiful light and what a lovely visitor to find in the garden! Hope the fish and frogs took cover while he was there :)

@4rky They probably did.....but I was near to chase him away :)
