It used to come up and hide behind me when I was feeding the geese some seeds, but had such a bold character, tugging at my coat and diving his head into my seed bag from behind. I developed some bond with it, so I'll be missing him/her if it is indeed the one. But great to learn it's not being bullied anymore!victoria.viola1026https://www.blogger.com/profile/17079865596209380493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278510471239667560.post-2676929111256751852019-11-17T19:39:07.118+00:002019-11-17T19:39:07.118+00:00A man visits the herons daily and feeds them tinne...A man visits the herons daily and feeds them tinned sardines with chopsticks.

Great to see that she is doing so fine and as pretty as ever. That was a good and very kind deed, to take the poor dishevelled Canada to a better, more peaceful place. <br /><br />I will never stop being amazed by the tameness of Kensington Gardens Herons.TinĂºvielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04794275230697959519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278510471239667560.post-32573398008171541762019-11-17T01:42:17.919+00:002019-11-17T01:42:17.919+00:00I think that when the loser is held under it has t...I think that when the loser is held under it has to submit.
