Re: Purple Heron still around

Would that my pics of 24June were as good ! but it does look like the same aged bird ! See the SOS posting under Ham Wall for the latest (as far as I know)

Re: Purple Heron still around

John, your images are excellent as clearly it was dreadful weather but plenty of detail. I put a few hours in on the Sunday and had no luck. I posted a couple of images on Birdguides of the same purple heron taken from the first viewing platform at Ham Wall on Friday the 28th. Blue sky but distant, heavily cropped and heat hazed (I also put a couple of the distant osprey at Noahs Lake on there)!

Juv. Purple Heron seen in flight at 13.30hrs from Tor Hide. Flew west to east along far tree line.
