Scared Heron...

I heard what sounded like scared barks, then I saw a Great Blue Heron in the inlet at Myers Park.  My first pic the Heron looked like it had knocked-knees - I soon realized it was scared - as I heard the barking noise again and realized the Heron was being repeatedly dive-bombed by a couple of very large birds.  I didn't get too many close-ups of the Heron being attacked/scared off as the big birds flew toward it and swiftly flew around again for another bombing.  I think the big birds were one of the pairs of resident Ospreys that have nests in that area and were scaring the Heron away from their fishing territory.  The Heron eventually flew off duly reprimanded.
