As Seen In Lamorinda: A Fisher Stands Alone

Photo Chris Lavin

This blue heron has easy pickings at Moraga Country Club, where the golf course ponds are running low so the little fish are close to shore. Herons like to hang out alone. They have a spring in their necks which coils back; then when they see a fish they release the spring and capture their prey. The offspring of the invasive largemouth bass in these ponds provides plenty of food, as well as sticklebacks. C. Lavin
