Grey Heron

The young one flew over to meet me at the entrance this morning  landed on a barrier then walked over to meet me. She walked over to the grass and emptied her crop onto the ground (not that there was much) presumably to make space for what I was about to give her. She had a fair bit of whitebait and I kept the crows away from her with some pollock. She then flew to the edge of the loch and waited there for me. As I approached the older female landed. The young one did not eat much more but the older female a some. Then it was off to the clearing where the male was waiting. He got the rest and had an extra feed after lunch as he was the only one around.
