Heron fishing

This heron was fishing happily in this pond situated in an urban park . I’ve never before had such a lengthy encounter, it seemed completely unperturbed by all the people coming and going .

We left home at 8 this morning and drove to Leicester for a thirty minute garden visit with my dad . We picnicked for a while in my youngest brothers garden , took Bramble for a walk in the park and then drove home . It’s not quite 8.30 and Bramble is sleeping peacefully on her bed while I’m clock watching , trying to decide when I can head for mine . I’m really sleepy and tired despite having just sat in the car for much of the day .
The sun shone , the flowers glowed and the roads were fairly quiet ( for a Saturday)
