The Great Blue Heron is North America's largest heron, standing over four feet tall with a wingspan that can exceed six feet. These patient hunters are often seen standing motionless in shallow water, waiting for the perfect moment to strike with lightning-fast precision at fish, frogs, and other aquatic prey. They're found near virtually any water source - from coastal shores to inland ponds - and nest in colonies called rookeries high in trees.
