The Great Blue Heron’s scientific name is Ardea Herodias. They are seen in lakes, rivers, and marshes. We see them the most here in Utah. They eat fish, amphibians and insects. Nests are built in trees near the water in March and April. The males gather all the materials and the females build it. After the nests are built they get reused over and over. They can be 3.5 feet in diameter. Usually there is 4 eggs in a nest but the most is 7. Both parents sit on the eggs for 25 to 29 days. Young can fly in 2 to 3 months.
