Grey Heron came for breakfast
I looked out my window this morning just in time to see this big grey ready
to dine. I scared him off but I think he scared me more. He took off down the road and looked twice as big as when he was sitting. Ugly thing! I tried to count my fish but they are in hiding. I have preforms (18" depth) so they can't go deep to escape. I have plants and rocks built up for hiding, this as a precaution because I had previously lost 9 fish about a month ago. I thought it was a raccoon since I live in the woods, but I caught the beast red handed this morning. I immediately covered the ponds with netting I had around to keep birds out of my grapes. The problem now is he knows where we are now. I want to enjoy the ponds not make a fortress out of it. I have read that one can clean you out in one visit. I have determined to go to rubber liner and dig to at least 3 ft straight down. I did not have this in the first place because I have a water dog (Chesapeake Bay Retriever) with long claws. Any suggestions? Joann |
