And I never seen the crane or heron that came to my pond and snacked on my
koi......then about a week ago my neighbor came into our back yard (and
didn't know we had a pond) and said I was wondering why the heron or crane
sat on top of your house waiting for ya'll to leave...he crane will be back
the like to visit the same pond every year to see whats new....we have a
bird net covering our pond until mid spring...the birds still come but the
plants grown and help the fish hide,...plus I dropped a 10 gallon bucket on
the bottom of the pond for them to hide in........

A large crane (about three foot long pointy beak )killed one of my gold
fish & was after the others when i chased him off! The ice had just
melted off the pond ! Never had seen any cranes around here
before ! Mt laurel nj. Poor goldy was five years old! R.I.P.
