Hi

Thanks for that. At least I should not be troubled with raccoons here in UK.
I am still not convinced that I could position one to cover all appearances
of the heron.
A photo of my pond is at ---

If I put one at one end - the thing could attack from behind or round the
side I reckon.

In your video the bird conveniently appears in the same place. Bit silly
really !

Convince me, or it is back to the (yet to be built) wire mesh frames idea
AYR.

See my pond at my website below, it completely covers both the koi pond and
lily pond (separate areas, separate sprinklers), the area sprayed is
adjustable, just like regular Rainbird sprinklers, so the swath it patrols
is up to your discretion. As far as the vision of the sensor, I have mine
about 10 feet back from the middle of the koi ponds, nothing is safe
approaching from the sides or approaching from the far side. The stream and
distance it shoots is also adjustable. How wide is your pond? ~ jan
