Heron, Pinkfoot & Little Grebe



Pleasant Autumn sunshine and a rise in temperature, made for a pleasant day on the riverside. 


The Heron looked good against a golden river, and the Little Grebe was busy catching tiddlers.


A surprise visitor was a Pink foot goose which has been hanging around the island for several days.


Probably wounded by a wildfowl shooter and paddled it's way to the safety of the river. 


Maybe the word is getting around that the Swans island is a safe haven.
