Wildlife at Bletchley Park - Heron spying on cygnets

As we went to visit Bletchley Park in Milton Keynes, we stopped by the pond to eat our sandwiches.
The grass by the pond was busy with wildlife. Ducks and their babies, swans and their babies and even an opportunistic heron hoping to get a tasty snack....
The keeper said that the heron would happily eat a duckling but as I was filming, I saw the heron get closer to the two cygnets which were swimming at the edge of the pond with their mother.

As the heron gets closer, you can see the female swan opening her beak and telling it to keep away from her babies. But it ignore her so she goes for it and scares it away.

I hope you enjoy this small clip:
