There's something ...

... at the end of my beak.

Hard to see unless further enlarged, there does seem to be something right at the end of its beak. And its right eye appears to be focussed on that point.

I have seen rather more young heron this year than in the past, at least consciously.

Paternal brag: Daughter C's self published book (Dust Bound) has just been purchased by the Auckland libraries; three copies.
