First thought - Wow! A heron! Cool!
Second thought - hummm... a pretty sizeable bird, with a foot of very well-designed stabbing equipment on its head. On a very narrow stretch of towpath...
Suddenly remembered an urgent 'phone call I had to make. By the time I'd finished, it had flown off. All honour satisfied.
