The grey heron (Ardea cinerea Linnaeus) is a bird belonging to the Ardeidae family. Native to the temperate regions of the Old World, as well as Africa, it is the species of heron that goes further north, so much so that in summer it is easy to meet it along the Norwegian coasts, well beyond the Arctic Circle.

Heron fishing at my local pond

A tall, often solitary bird, the Grey Heron is one of the UK's most familiar birds. It feeds mainly on fish, but also eats small mammals (even Moles!), waterbirds (sometimes up to the size of a Coot) and Crayfish. It is often seen standing stock-still in the shallow waters of lakes, rivers and ponds, patiently hunting fish that flit about below the surface. It will visit gardens with ornamental ponds, looking for an easy meal.
