I caught this wee bird out my window. Not the greatest shot but he/ she did come very close until I threw a sausage roll, its official that herons dont like sausage rolls!

"The plumage don't enter into it!..."

Now that I'm done quoting Mr. Cleese... Let's see an action shot with a roll in mid lob.

Thanks everyone This bird is actually regularly found almost in the same spot every morning at about 5:30ish, must be part of his daily routine. After encountering a low flying sausage roll im not sure he'll be back though
