  • Bad Heron day!

    From my visit to Hickling Broad Nature Reserve last week.
    This Grey Heron wasn't having much luck raiding Black Headed Gull nests!

    The Lapwings were even less impressed.

            Herons are cunning old birds, I bet he got what he wanted eventually.

              Yes likely he did, but not while we were watching, he tried several B H Gull nests a couple of Lapwing nests and even got chased away from an Avocet nest by the adults there.
