I've gotten lucky with my animal encounters recently! Today, I met this gorgeous heron at my local allotments. It was the closest I've been to one! 8 metres, at very most!

![The grey heron is a large bird, standing up to 100 cm (40 in) tall and measuring 84–102 cm (33–40 in) long with a 155–195 cm (61–77 in) wingspan.[10] The body weight can range from 1.02–2.08 kg (2 lb 4 oz – 4 lb 9+1⁄4 oz) The plumage is largely ashy-grey above, and greyish-white below, with some black on the flanks. Adults have a white head and neck with a broad black supercilium that terminates in the slender, dangling crest, and bluish-black streaks on the front of the neck. The scapular feathers and the feathers at the base of the neck are somewhat elongated. Immature birds lack the dark stripe on the head and are generally duller in appearance than adults, with a grey head and neck, and a small, dark grey crest. The pinkish-yellow beak is long, straight, and powerful, and is brighter in color in breeding adults. The iris is yellow and the legs are brown and very long](https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/114/507/907/930/166/614/original/0f072dfa1b71462d.jpg "The grey heron is a large bird, standing up to 100 cm (40 in) tall and measuring 84–102 cm (33–40 in) long with a 155–195 cm (61–77 in) wingspan.[10] The body weight can range from 1.02–2.08 kg (2 lb 4 oz – 4 lb 9+1⁄4 oz) The plumage is largely ashy-grey above, and greyish-white below, with some black on the flanks.

I believe there's actually a very blurred second heron in the background on the left, but I only noticed it after I took the photo! #greyheron #heron #birdphotography #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #smartphonephotography #photography
