Great Blue Heron Displays Territorial Aggression In Feeding Grounds Stock Photography

Great Blue Heron: They hunt mostly by wading, often belly-deep, impaling prey with a sharp, spear-like bill, or by standing and waiting for prey in shallow water. They also dive feet first after prey and hunt while floating or from floating objects. Their diet consists of fish, frogs, salamanders, lizards, snakes, shrimps, crabs, crayfish, dragonflies, grasshoppers and aquatic insects. Great blue herons are also extremely territorial and will aggressively defend their nests and feeding grounds.
