Heron deterrent
 
Tried fake herons / fake foxes but no luck.
Tried nets over pond but heron will still stab fish to death even tho
it can't get them out of the pond.
Currently trying a low wire 'fence' (about 30cm high) all way round
edge of pond and it seems to be working.
Incidentally, I have noticed that crows don't seem to like herons and
will mob them, so I'm trying to encourage crows into the garden with
the odd bit of meat or chick carcass on top of the garage.
Who knows?

rifle bullet I believe - gets you thrown in jail in some parts of the
country, won't stop the problem (another heron will take its place) and
strikes me as very unponder like... but then I have a pond because I like
the wildlife it supports and I don't buy $10,000 Koi (which is something I
can no more understand than buying a $100,000 car)... May be why I'm in
more trouble than not at ponds.rec - that and my political views....
