Hi Cam,

In your area I'm expecting the herons head south for the winter. They only hang
around where there is open water (like where I live) in the winter.

Raccoons slow down at the very least. Males heading around looking for females,
moms hanging about with the resultant babies. They put on a lot of weight to
get them thru the winter. There won't be any plants for them in the pond, the
fish will be at the bottom. You 'should' be safe...
