I have a heron trying to feed in the pond behind my house but he keeps getting chased away by a very territorial red winged blackbird. Any thoughts on how I can help the heron?

Hi Karen, They will have to work it out between them. If the heron gets hungry enough, it will stick around, or it will find a quieter spot for lunch.
