Grey Heron

This Heron has been close to my garden since the start of the cold snap, the attraction is the pond in my neighbours garden. It dropped in on the old outhouse this morning and I had enough time to get to the attic room to get this shot. It was pretty misty and a little too far away for an ideal shot but still the best Heron capture I have managed so far.

The female Great Spotted Woodpecker paid a fleeting visit and there were some Redwings in the trees at the bottom of the garden (a garden list tick for me). So all in all an excellent hour and I didn't even step out of the house!
