birds interact. I really wish I'd come in and gotten my camera when I first saw the heron. It might have been possible to get a shot then as the line of geese swam towards the heron and it turned away as if to say it didn't give a damn about this attempted confrontation.

Sharing the pond and ignoring each other [View all] mnhtnbb Nov 2023 OP

It's tough to get close to the herons. I accidentally snuck up on one floating the river one time. I came around brewens Nov 2023 #1

I haven't heard a heron honk! mnhtnbb Nov 2023 #7

It's a deeper lower honk than the geese. Canada geese are thick around here. n/t brewens Nov 2023 #13
