おもしろい事実

A White-faced Heron might shiver its bill in the water to attract curious fish!

Their call is a harsh, guttural croak, quite different from a melodic song.

Their feathers are covered in a special powder, keeping them waterproof for hunting!

Young herons don't have the white face yet; they appear all grey until they mature.
