    Young heron fishing in Connaught Water, Epping Forest, Essex.. Wish I could show you the high res. image as these low res. web images are never sharp enough.

    The intensity of his eye on the fish!

    Lovely pic H, [​IMG] Connaught waters, brings back memories of my childhood, used to cycle there from Edmonton, quite a way on a 24in bike with no gears! :D

    Snap strongylodon, but used to take the bus as a boy and learnt to row over Connaught waters! :D

    Wonder if the rowing boats are still there?

    No boats now - Health and Safety Police banned 'em. Lots of Canada Geese and mallards and sometimes something more exciting

    [​IMG] I found this tiny moth on the Marjoram flowers. I don't think it was even 1/2" across the wing span.. At this moment not sure what it is, so shall look it up. Just thought I would share it though it is so delicately marked.... [​IMG]
