Grey Heron

The young one and the older female were both waiting on the top of the dovecote this morning. The young one flew down as soon as she spotted us and ran over to meet us at the gate. She was joined by a more cautious older female. They both had a good feed. The young one flew back immediately whereas the older female hung back a bit in case  there was more. The crow was also there and had a bit of pollock.
This afternoon it was just the male who knows my route and kept popping up just ahead of me. He ended up getting all I had with me!
The young one is moulting again and as the photo shows is losing some of the darker crest feathers.
