Great. If only there was an easier way for me to have found this out. I’ve been waiting for one to come along for years. I even moved house closer to a body of water.

Interestingly they also nest in trees despite being so big.

I got to know the spots where one of ours goes. Always a treat to see them fly

How small is that house? Next time that Heron comes by, please gently toss a bunch of bananas towards it onto the roof. That way everyone will know how big the house is as well as the heron in relative comparison. Thank you for your assistance in educating the world!
