Behold, the big #Heron of Kelvingrove park in #Glasgow!

It was surrounded by lots of crows and pigeons who wanted it to go away.

(I saw it catch and eat a big rat the other day... that was quite horrible to watch and really changed how I see them!)

Photo of a big, white, grey and black Heron standing on a branch. It looks a bit wet or scruffy. At that time he was just enjoying the sun I think. In the background there are yellow and green automnal leaves.
Photo (taken from a video) of the heron chasing a crow away that came to shout at it. The heron's "crown" went up and it clapped its beak at the crow. The crow just moved a little bit higher on its branch.
