Heron of Heron Square

I've been looking out for this fella for a few months and today I finally saw him. Was starting to think he'd emigrated, or worse. He was a regular sight last year when I was last working down by the Richmond riverside, but this is the first time I've seen him in 2013. So he's OK. Wonder where he's been? He's got a harem of colourful ducks Egyptian Geese now too. Good lad.

(I say 'he', I'm not a heron-sexer...)
