*** About Great Blue Heron: The Great Blue Heron is a large wading bird commonly found throughout North America, including Oregon's Sauvie Island. Known for its striking appearance and hunting prowess, this heron stands up to four feet tall with a wingspan that can exceed six feet. Adapted to both fresh and saltwater environments, Great Blue Herons feed primarily on fish, which they catch with lightning-quick thrusts of their long, sharp bills. These birds are often spotted standing silently along the water's edges or gliding gracefully above the wetlands and rivers, a sentinel of the wetland habitats.
