White-faced Heron

WHITE-FACED HERON

 
The Kilmore Cricket Club has a dam which it uses to water its ground. It is a rather deep dam with steep-sides so there is not always a lot of bird life around it.

Today, whilst the dam still has plenty of water in it, it is starting to shrink around the edges. There is a lot of grass, now turning to seed, growing along the damp edges. It is still October,  we are in for a very early summer season.












































A lone heron was amongst the grass at the water's edge. He or she was watching  the water, closely. A quick step and a beak-full of plump young fish.
