Very much enjoy watching these large shore birds…3-4 ft tall with a wingspan of 60-70 in. Herons are very cautious birds, and will often take flight once they have spotted something that they feel is a threat.
Therefore one needs to use the vehicle as a blind to watch these birds.
They spend most of their time slowly wading along the shoreline in search of food…stopping and standing motionless for minutes at a time. Then perhaps a strike for food or once again moving on.
Still have not been able to find a nest site…perhaps one day ?
