Great Blue Heron By: Sydney Fronheiser

Introduction Have you ever seen a tall skinny white or grayish bird standing so still you might think it was a statue? If you have you were probably looking at a Great Blue Heron.

Appearances One thing that makes the Great Blue Heron stick out from other birds is that it is 3 to 4 feet tall. Also their legs are as thin as sticks. Can you imagine walking on legs as thin as those? They have narrow heads and beaks that look like spears. Another interesting fact is that the Great Blue Herons can be grayish or white and might even seem blue. Lastly, they have long skinny necks.

Behaviors A Great Blue Heron fishing. When you see a Great Blue Heron it is likely you will find them waiting in water. Why? It is waiting for a fish to come by and stab it with their spear like beaks. That is the way a Great Blue Heron fishes. Another behavior of the Great Blue Heron is in flight they will stretch their legs behind them and curl their head between their shoulders. Speaking of flight, did you know that half of the Heron specie migrates? Lastly, like the Dove, Great Blue Herons mate for life.

Habitat Great Blue Herons live in North America. You can find them along rivers, lakes, and ponds or even on seashores of the Atlantic and Pacific. Lastly, they build their nests in high trees made of sticks and reeds.

Diet and Predators Favorite food Will eat food Fish Crayfish Crab Frogs Shrimp Salamanders Great Blue Herons have a marine diet. They eat fish, frogs, salamanders, snakes, crabs, shrimp, and crayfish. The predators of the Great Blue Heron’s eggs are turkey vulture, ravens, and many other animals. The Golden Eagle is a predator of the Great Blue Heron at every stage of their life.

Other Awesome Facts Great Blue Herons have 3 to 7 eggs, it takes about 28 days for the eggs to hatch. They also live in colonies. There are about 150 couples in a colony. Did you know, the Great Blue Heron is the largest type of heron. Lastly, they live 15 to 24 years.
