White-faced Heron

The weather has continued to be very wet, cold and miserable this last week with some of the strongest winds I’ve seen since last summer so no photo opportunities 😦  I saw this heron early in the morning looking for a meal when we went to Anglesea for the day at the start of last month.  Click on the image for a better view.

Beak hour traffic!

The coots on the dam are always entertaining, from the scuffles to graceful dives, they are certainly one of the noisiest of this bird community!
