ditched pond hero!

I felt quite bad watching this guy - Pond Heron in one of the ditches near Rr.Noyyal in a fren's farmhouse... the feeling that they get accustomed to such polluted habitats show what we are doing to them ! Well I dont see anything gr8 in this pic, but is disturbing...thats it! This is a cropped one with few camouflaged sandpipers around...that was making me more sick!
