Title: Purple Heron - Saltholme
Post by: Ray. Scott on October 26, 2011, 06:59:30 PM
Taken today from the Top Tank as It flew towards the Wildlife Watchpoint, then viewed again when it flew off towards the Phil Stead hide, not seen again by me when I left the Phil Stead hide about 4pm.
Another first for me  :).

These are really excellent photos of bird I didn't see through being away for a few days.  But at least I can now visualise what I have missed.

Well done, Ray.

Cheers Ted, no doubt you'll have seen plenty, while you were away.
As for me, this was my first sighting & photograph of this bird.
