Herons: Nature's Voracious Eaters

Dr. Richard A. NeSmith

Herons are water wading birds with beautiful plumage, as well as great hunters and stalkers. Most migrate and build great nests in rookeries called heronries. This issue focuses on how herons form migration flocks, raise their chicks and hunt their prey. And hunt the prey they do, with an almost ferocious and mesmerizing manner of catching almost anything small enough to swallow. They are nature’s voracious eaters.

The seven native herons of North America include the Great Blue Heron, Green Heron, Black-crowned Night-Heron, Yellow-crowned Night-Heron, Tricolored Heron, Little Blue Heron, and the Tiger-Heron (Mexico).
