Heron Addict

Heron in flight

Birds are marvellous, and herons are one of my favourites.

Why herons, you may ask?

To me herons are;

  • noble
  • occasionally wise looking
  • statuesque, and thus easy to take photos of
  • graceful
  • as well as being an ancient Egyptian deity, Bennu.

‘I am nothing/ But a prayer/ To catch a fish./ A hush of air –/ A bloom of cloud/ On a tilting stalk.’

Ted Hughes, ‘The Heron’ from The Mermaid’s Purse.

 

Enjoy the following gallery of herons and look out for more lovely birds, coming soon…
