I managed to grab a shot of this Grey Heron as it took off from the duck pond in the village of Buriton, Nr Petersfield in Hampshire.

Thank you Isabel.........as always I had the wrong lens with me, but I carry a 1.4 times converter with me which gave me 210mm which turned out to be plenty.

Ha, ha...........it can't be much fun standing up to your knees in cold water all the time :-))
