I hear them outside my window a lot. I used to mostly hear males, but I've recently heard a female, too. I've also, quite embarrassingly, heard a couple of them doing "things". 😳
I'm also shocked. We have one in our neighborhood (or a few if it isn't the same one we keep seeing) and I fell in love with this heron. It's like Florida's own penguin. I always thought of it as a benign little dude but after seeing this video, I think I've begged off the idea of going full St. Francis of Assisi.
WOW !! 😁😁 MY FAVORITE BIRDS OF ALL DOING WHAT'S NECESSARY TO FEND OFF A BEAUTIFUL BUT DANGEROUS PREDATOR TO CROWS & THEIR HATCHINGS. I LOVE CROWS .❤❤☺☺ THANKS FOR POSTING THIS LOVELY VIDEO. 👍👍
What you see in that water is a result of a City full of trashy scumbags and a city government who does nothing but ignore the problems such as this one. Well this was 7 years ago it's probably seven times worse than that by now there is a way to clean out the rivers but they don't want to do nothing about it
