Royal Cam Albatross ~ Henry The Heron Stops By To Say Hello To Pippa!! 7.14.20

Henry the white faced heron stops by a couple times to pay Pippa a visit!! She sees him fly in and stands up and clacks watching him walk to the other side of the nest. Henry then will do a brief photobomb on the left hand side before departing. He returns later for another quick visit! Too bad he didn't do his snake neck dance for her!! lol Thank you for watching!
