When Tower Bridge has let you down, Heroneers turn to reliable Herons to lift their mood. Like Bob, Grey Heron Legend, who oversees and manages the Otter exhibit at Barnes Wetlands in W London, in return for a daily supply of the Otters' fish. #HeroneerTipOfTheDay #NamedHeron 1/2 🧵

To find your Heron: 1. Head down canal 2. Forget all thoughts of Heron 3. Let your mind wander 4. Let your mind wonder 5. Let Patience be yours 6. Heron will appear* 7. Ignore, look away, think kind thoughts 8. Eyes averted you may approach * Heron not guaranteed, but lovely time is.

In 1993 the Green Backed Heron was split into 3: Green Heron in Americas, Lava Heron in Galapagos, Striated Heron in rest Then 2025 a new study & new split: Africa & Asia's 20(!) subspecies are called Little Heron ⬇️ ; Striated is reserved for South America Heroneers must keep on their toes! 1/2

Crow and Heron have been fighting rooftop battles for 1000s of years. When asked, neither Crowkind nor Heronkind can explain why, and merely say "it's just what we've done, and must do for all time"

Both are real Herons. Heron and Reflection 🪩 Just one is less sure of this particular plane of existence and prefers to keep itself to its watery self #HeroneerTipOfTheDay

#Poetry #Art #RIP There is no power against them... only an inward clarity, unashamed, that they cannot reach. Be ready. When their light has picked you out say to them: “I am not ashamed.” The heron will begin his evening flight from the hilltop. - Wendell Berry RIP

As your Heroneering skills develop As you start to think calmer thoughts on approach You'll notice Herons no longer flee But instead gift you with Heron moments. #HeroneerTipOfTheDay

La Serenissima, Venice, "is not just a city: it is a myth, a symbol" Garzetta 🇮🇹, Little Egret, is not just a bird, it is a myth, a symbol. Beautiful cable curve 🤍

Herons attract Puns. They seem to be made for one another. Just living in the Heron and now.

This very focused Squacco Heron was at El Hondo the other day. All the other summer herons had departed for Africa. I love the stealth of herons and egrets. #birds #birdphotography #birding #naturephotography #Alicante

Cochlearius cochlearius, from Latin for a spoon 🥄 in shape of snailshell 🐌 Unique beak is used in very traditional Heron ways: Spearing & grabbing. It is more for display than function - In bonding, the male holds the female's beak at the tip and they move, rhythmically together... Spooning 🥄💕 🥄

@everyheron.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/books/ng-int... She’s right, hope is innate young people’s passion for nature is growing, and we can fix threats to birds if we act now. The future isn’t written yet.

My kid is going to know what a Heron is by Matt Clegg. #HeronPoem

Watchers
What do you think you're doing? my wife asks
Each time I bundle our kid in a sling
And take her out, early, before the trucks
Hammer the roads. We leave the estate, walk along
The dual carriageway for a mile or so
Then cross the central reservation. Once
We surprised a brace of rabbits where weeds grow
Behind a bill-board, but never again since.
We're heading for the spot where the road cuts
Over the river. We can wait a long time
And often go un-rewarded, but it's
Worth it for the off-chance of seeing him
Slow-step the ebb and flow with such grace.
My kid is going to know what a heron is.
Matt Clegg

He is exactly The poem I wanted to write. Mary Oliver saw it all #HeronPoetry

WHITE HERON RISES OVER Blackwater by Mary Oliver

I wonder

what it is

that I will accomplish

if anything

today

can be called

that marvelous word.

It won't be

my kind of work, which is only putting words on a page,

the pencil haltingly calling up the light of the world,

yet nothing appearing on paper

half as bright

as the mockingbird's

verbal hilarity

in the still unleafed shrub

in the churchyard

or the white heron

rising

over the swamp

and the darkness,

his yellow eyes

and broad wings wearing the light of the world in the light of the world

ah yes, I see him.

He is exactly

the poem

I wanted to write.

Practicing to walk like a Heron by Jack Ridl #HeronPoetry #Poetry It's the walk of solemn monks Progressing to prayer on stilts books.google.co.uk/books/about/...

practicing to walk like a heron :: jack ridl

My wife is at the computer. The cat is sleeping across the soft gold cushion

of my chair. Last night there was a frost. I am practicing to walk like a heron.

It's the walk of solemn monks progressing to prayer on stilts,

the deliberate cadence of a waltz in water. I lift my right leg within.

the stillness, within the languid quiet of a creek, slowly, slowly,

slowly set my foot on the dog-haired carpet, pause, hold a half note, lift

the left, head steady as a bell before the ringer tugs the rope. On I walk,

the heron's mute way, across the room, past my wife who glances

up, holds her slender hands above the keys until I pass.

Found yourself On the Isle of Man? Move slowly and respectful like And you'll probably get past Great Silver Heron without a fright. Tempted to yell and shout? You'll soon find out! 🥢
