we have heron that live by the river near our house here. but no gorse i'm afraid. reading that and thinking of it has taken me back to british spring.
Love "heron, buffeted by the wind" They stand still whatever the weather and if it is rough their feathers get blown about something rotten. Do you know the Edwin Morgan poem Heron?
I like the way that both of these birds appear firmly seated within their environment. I think that shows how creatures connect to their surroundings far more than people do.

Pungent ornithological images.
These are wonderful images! Blue heron's inhabit our area year round - such beautiful birds.Our broom (gorse) has yet to bud.
Nadia - yes its the beginning of a beautiful British spring up here...
d.moll - thanks
janice - we have gorse and broom, the broom is softer in its foliage

Weaver - I love watching herons, yes I do know that Edwin Morgan poem, his Selected Poems is one of the poetry books I'm currently reading
great early spring images
Both of these verses put lovely visions in my head, and that is what it is all about, right?
