Most of the time it takes 3 to 6 weeks to build the nest I believe. So it's hard work!

I still have not got a shot of any heron i pulled up beside one recently, it was in the middle of the road, i was only about four feet away and could see every detail, no camera with me though.

Sorry to hear! That's having bad luck.
I see allot of them where I live but they are gone before you can take the camera. Previous summer it took me lots of patience before I finally got a good picture of one. They are such shy birds when they live in the wild. You see one, stop to take your camera and off they go!!
I wish you more luck next time.

In years gone past i have had them trying to get fish out of my keep net during the winter months, not so shy then, but again no camera.
