Well that was a big pigeon!

Strolling through Kensington Gardens earlier this afternoon:









And off it went!

I was only standing about six feet from it for at least a minute or two.

Well captured Ian they are usually very anti humans, It looks very hot in the gardens!

You should feel chuffed with that. Most unusual for a heron to mix with humans. Being a young one maybe it hasn't learnt to fear them yet.

Yes, I reckoned it was a juvenile too.
