Amazing Footage of a Heron Fishing on the Shore

Great Blue Herons (Ardea herodias) are large wading birds that are often seen catching fish on the shore. Here's some information about these amazing birds:

Great Blue Herons are found throughout much of North America, as well as in parts of Central and South America, and the Caribbean.

They are large birds, measuring about 91-137 cm (36-54 inches) in height and with a wingspan of up to 2 meters (6.6 feet).

Great Blue Herons have long, sharp bills that they use to catch fish, as well as other small animals like frogs, snakes, and insects.

They are solitary hunters and often stand completely still for long periods of time, waiting for prey to come within striking distance.

Great Blue Herons are also known for their elaborate courtship displays, which involve stretching their necks, flapping their wings, and making loud calls.

Despite being common and widespread, Great Blue Herons face threats from habitat loss, pollution, and disturbance from humans.
