Heron in the park in Amsterdam

A walk in a local park, and I spotted a heron hanging out with the pigeons. None of the people walking past seemed at all surprised, so I'm guessing it's a regular sight!

You just don't expect to see herons on paved areas! Very nice shot - I love his mini-me shadow.

@dulciknit I was so chuffed to see him so close up! :o)
