I have some great photos of heron swallowing fish, but the scent is not one you would want to remember! Thank goodness for lilies! Aloha! Rico

A lovely image Jan, saw the heron visit our neighbours garden a few times, luckily he had strong netting over the pond. Tom

the heron was on the sea shore and I smelled honey suckle but I was tending my lilly pots so married everything together for the poem:-) hugs Jan xx

I adore stargazer lillies and have some just starting to show shoots... the aroma I smelled today was actually honeysuckle and as for the heron it was on the sea shore but I married the two to get a poem:-) hugs Jan xx
