It's a pwetty widdle heron, yes you are, yes you are! I loike herone but they would be a problem around a fish pond.
Loz, you should have Great Blue Herons in your area. Check out all the lake, ponds, rivers and Streams in your area. I evewn have one or two Great Blue Herons fly over the roof o f my house every evening......and I am 5 miles from the nearest water.

We just installed a tiny pond this spring (maybe 5' across). I doubt fish would survive in it past summer but we're thinking of experimenting with minnows to see if a heron WILL stop over sometime. We have a large lake just one street over from us.
Now, if we had koi or some other specialized expensive fish in there, I'd feel the same way as you about it!
Thorn did not hear you as he is busy shoving tons of breakfast foods down his drooling maw, while his starving family scours the fields and woods for anything REMOTELY edible.

Those are some really great photos. I guess they're a pest when you have a pond, but they sure are beautiful. I have Sandhill Cranes down here but not too many Herons. Good pictures.
