With the weather being so bright and sunny yesterday afternoon I decided to call in at Marazion marsh to see what was about on the way home from Tehidy, The late afternoon and evening light can be lovely over the reed beds on such evenings, The usual contenders were all on show which included several young and mature Grey Heron and a couple of Snipe, I settled down to follow one mature heron that had moved across to the near marsh fringes to fish for Three Spine Sticklebacks, This bird was a grand master, graceful and stealthful in its approach which created some fine reflections opportunities on the still water, I watched it skilfully take six fish in around and hour which passed amazingly quickly as I studied its progress while taking about a hundred images along the way, The bird finally lifted off looking well pleased with itself and I headed home with another large batch if images to sift through but not without stopping to take a few Starling flock shots over the hill around Marazion on the way.
