No problems with Herons? Here in suburban Atlanta I have several different kinds visit our big pond daily, including Great Blue. Fun to watch them fish.

Your pond looks lovely.

Thanks! The pond is next to a house and there is tree cover, which I think deters herons. But the Charles River is just a few hundred yards away, and the herons are very active there in the shallows and swampy coves.

Our main problem is racoons. At night they come to fish with their claws in the shallow areas of the pond.
