In the dying light a heron flies to his roost - night owls hoot at sunrise heron waits patiently to lance prey - night owls sleep

On the east coast of North America, we have both white and blue herons. Your grey herons sound fascinating.

Herons are a common sight in Scotland. They stand hunched over waiting to spear a fish. Linda x
