*** About Great Blue Heron: Great blue herons are a prevalent sight in North American wetlands. Standing up to four feet tall, these impressive birds are known for their striking blue-gray plumage and sharp, sword-like bills. They are expert hunters, often seen standing still as statues in shallow waters waiting to spear fish with rapid precision. Their nests, usually built high in trees or over water, are made of sticks and can be quite large, reflecting years of use by the same pair or by successive generations. Great blue herons are sociable during the nesting season but are highly territorial on their feeding grounds, where they are most often found alone.
