We are the quiet unnoticed Heron, inspiring Heroneers all over Planet Earth, as you encounter Heronkind for 1st or 1000th time.
"Nature is reported in the fullness of life... To the full heart she is all but a figure of speech"-Thoreau www.everyheron.com

In olden days people saw Heron as some of the saddest, wretched, depressed creatures. Perhaps they just saw themselves reflected?

Today people who stop to watch describe us as meditating, thoughtful, wise, and seeing the world better than most. Again, reflections. 💙 (1804)
We call this...

Herondipity - the faculty or phenomenon of finding heron moments not sought for.
A heron came into the frame just as I snapped this photo of the tree's reflection. Pretty generous of him, I think. #landscape #photography #nicomekl #Surrey #BC

Somedays you just want to tuck your head back under your duvet feathers...
... And leave your headplume to face the day.

No sunset to speak of in Ucluelet tonight so here's a Great Blue Heron in flight at Big Beach. It never occurred to me that the soles of their feet would be yellow.

Ancient bridges and Aqueducts have been watched over by Heron Ancestors since the days they were built.

Life watching Stone grow old 1/2 🧵
This little egret was just out of frame to the right of the first photo, doing what its ancestors did in this same spot when the aqueduct was being built millennia ago #bird #wildlife #nature #photography #egret #PontDuGard @everyheron.bsky.social

London Grey Herons are the earliest to nest, some laying before Christmas! There maybe tiny chicks protected by the female here.

It's a calculated risk... the longer chicks have to grow & learn the more chance they'll survive winter 26/27. But must first survive the current cold 🧊 #LondonBirds 🪶
At Home with the Gil Scotts, Deptford Heron Watch 2025/26 Season (3) …. and then there were three (or maybe more). When watching from river level there was some movement and a tiny head & beak appeared above the nest.

A wonderful start to the new Heron Year... #HeronHeroes and Heron Hydrotherapy 💦

(tip: chuck a 🐟 in the Hydrotherapy pool for added workout)
This is another great example of the work that Ft. Lauderdale's South Florida Wildlife Center is doing to support wildlife in the South Florida area. Such a great team of folks working to repair and rehabilitate animals that find themselves in need for one reason or another.

A Siege. The first collective noun record was by Juliana Barnes (1388-1460) as Sedge, a reference to Herons as tall grasses at edge of a lake. Later it became Siege, in its old sense of a seat for someone in authority, a throne. Though many also see Siege, a gathering of cloaked, speared, soldiers.
Heron convention.

Use redlight so as not to annoy the resident Heron is one Heroneer New Years Resolution we hadn't considered. 🚨💙
Late night potting pollinator plants. The resident Heron in my oak cussed me out last night for using the white light on my head lamp.They are LOUD. I’m lucky I’m still here to tell the story. Red light only from now on, sir! #WildlifeGarden #NativePlantGarden #PollinatorGarden #BirdFriendlyGarden

In honor of @everyheron.bsky.social and everyone dedicated to a bit on this website, here's a quick heron highlight reel from this year, set to Blind Guardian's "Otherland," because that's what the song is about. 🪶

A great blue heron is reflected along with the root system of a dead tree that fell over ions ago at Izaak Walton Nature Area in Longmont, Colorado.
