Herons are beautiful birds. So big -huge wings and very distinctive in flight. When on the ground they often blend into the background, but here are some pictures I’ve taken this month. This one down at Victoria Park:

Victoria Park again – different day, but probably the same heron. I love it when they perch like old men in macs:

One of the few blessings of lockdown has been our discovery of Mugdock. We always knew it was there, but recently we’ve been visiting regularly. Such beauty on our doorstep, and views like this:

A holiday. A month ago it didn’t seem possible, but here we are, staying in a lodge outside Oban. Beautiful views:
