The grey heron (Ardea cinerea) is a long-legged wading bird of the heron family, Ardeidae, native throughout temperate Europe

The heron is an easily recognised, grey-backed bird, with long legs, a long, white neck, bright yellow bill and a black eyestripe that continues as long, drooping feathers down the neck. Flies with its long legs stretched out, but its neck pulled in

The Grey Heron is common and conspicuous in wetland habitats from marshes and tidal flats to small ponds, ditches, and wet fields.

Striking image of a grey heron standing in shallow water that has just caught a fish and is gulping it, which is clearly visible in its sharp, orange beak. The water, reeds, aquatic plants and foliage create a serene, natural backdrop, highlighting the bird's elegant posture and focused gaze.

A tall, often solitary bird, the Grey Heron is one of the UK's most familiar birds. It feeds mainly on fish, but also eats small mammals (even Moles!), waterbirds (sometimes up to the size of a Coot) and Crayfish. It is often seen standing stock-still in the shallow waters of lakes, rivers and ponds, patiently hunting fish that flit about below the surface. It will visit gardens with ornamental ponds, looking for an easy meal.
