Kind of a sad tale of nature's reality in Stanley park. Since they got rid of the zoo at Stanley Park there has been a nesting site for rare Blue Herons just outside the Aquarium. It's been there for years.
Well now the eagles are raiding the nests on a daily basis eating the eggs and eating their young. It's kid of just part of nature but it seems unfortunate that the eagles are raiding on a daily basis and keep coming back. Soon those herons will be extinct.
Normally when the eagles come the herons take to the air but they are finally starting to fight back. The blue herons don't have the long sharp bill the regualr herons do so it's pecking isn't as effective.
In Surrey the crows all gang up on the Eagles and keep dive bombing them over and over again. They do the same with hawks that steal their eggs and young. The herons need to get together and gang up on the eagles or they'll be come extinct.
Kind like us joining together to fight corporate greed. Kinda makes ya wanna take a sling shot and throw rocks at the eagles to protect the herons there.
