Grey Heron

[Kev Richards]

While on a recent trip to London Zoo, I chanced upon this fella. Not in captivity just stood quite happily and allowing me and my brother to get within five feet of him. We could have probably got closer as he really didn't seem bothered by us or any others that were walking by, he was purely focused on other things.

I wonder if it was the same bird as I saw in St James Park on Friday. Also very tame see Heron Flickr - Photo Sharing

I have to say I prefer the framing of your shots.
