Our Grey Herons have been caught on camera a few times in recent days adeptly catching fish out on the pools. Rudd is the only regular 'big' fish that we get on the reserve (although the odd Tench and Perch have been seen over the years along with sinuous Eels) and it isn't until you see one impaled by a hungry Heron that you get to see just how deep keeled and beautiful this fish is as they look grey and torpedo like from above as they cruise the ditches.
And so to the pictures...
