Review: Very life-like for esthetics, questionable for warding off the real ones. - The other day I watched with amusement out my window, as a nature loving couple were floating along in a small boat and caught sight of my plastic heron perched just inside the water perimeter. They enthusiastically took photos and a video. It wasn't until they were just a few feet away that they realized it was moulded plastic and looked around in embarrassment hoping no one else noticed. Herons are very territorial and will avoid infringing on another member's personal space.. People who have expensive Koi ponds especially, want some strategy to keeping the hungry diners away. I put up my Heron because the local live ones here in South Florida were eating every baby duck and goose within days of their birth. Were the locals fooled? Yes, and no. Initially they were wary. The problem is they realize something's fishy when the statue doesn't move for days. Some have advised the need to reposition the statue periodically to maintain the illusion. Maintaining a Kabuki Theatre isn't something I have time to indulge in. So my experiment met with mixed results. One thing to note is that the anchor post that positions the statue is also plastic. It should push easily into loose mud, but if the ground is packed or stony you'll easily damage or destroy the post. My solution was to buy a steel rod from Home Depot, cut one end at a spear like angle and pounding that in the soil. The plastic post is hollow and so readily slipped over the metal shaft making the whole thing very stable, but not conducive to moving around at a whim. Even though it wasn't 100% effective for my intended purpose, esthetically it's very lifelike and a nice addition to the view, so I do recommend it.
Review: Good quality, great coloration - Good quality, great coloration, almost looks like a real bird. If you're buying it as a deterrent to keep a live Heron off our pond, then make sure to relocate, and move it around your pond every other day. But do not rely on it. Heron's are super smart, even if you keep relocating it, they will soon figure out that its not real. Use in a combination with other deterrents. I found Yard Sentinels to be the most effective at keep Heron off my Koi pond. They require power and are less convenient but they do the job.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the dimension of this decoy?**
A: Its like 2.5 to 3 ft tall...I do not know the exact dimensions though, but it really does an excellent job!

**Q: Can the stake on the bottom be removed for inside display?**
A: Yes. the stake can be removed. You would want something to pin it down at the feet platform though. A couple of rocks or flower pots would work. I take mine indoors in winter and place it in center of my large schefflera plant.

**Q: DIMENSIONS?**
A: The decoy is 30 inches high, 18 inches deep & 7 inches wide.  It's very real looking.  I also agree with the two answers posted earlier: it worked for a few weeks, and when a live heron stood next to it, it was hard to tell them apart.

**Q: How do u mount it in yard that is windy?**
A: If I remember right it has a plastic steak on the bottom to stick into the ground. I sent mine back because a real heron landed right next to it and ate our fish!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finally a product that worked!!
*by C***N on August 3, 2016*

If you are having Heron problems then you need this!!! We heard about this decoy from our neighbors who like us have koi fish ponds. We have a very large pond and I witnessed twice a pesky heron take two of our fish. We put the decoy on rocks next to pond when it arrived. The herron flew around for about a week but did not go near our pond. Its now been 2 months and he is gone and we have no more issues. The key to the success is moving the decoy every day to a different spot- do this for 2 weeks and then move the decoy every few weeks. No more losing our precious fish!!!
