Heron

It was a beautiful morning on the moor today. The light caught this young heron perfectly as I arrived at Exhibition Park for parkrun.

It was quite a parkrun day for the family. My nephew, currently in Australia, ran in Brisbane (at 10pm Friday evening BST). and then, just 20 hours later, Daughter #2 came 7th in a field of 16 at Barton Trail parkrun, in Canada. By contrast to this event in Ontario, Bushy parkrun needed a team of over 100 volunteers to look after around 6,000 runners at their 1,000th event!
