Over the years, I've seen Great Blue Herons catch and eat a lot of strange
stuff from turtles and snakes to Pectoral Sandpipers. Here at the "Pits"
in Memphis, since 1996, one bird returns year after year to the same spot
and stalks rats. We get few Great Blue Herons around the lagoons because
there are no fish in the sludge but we do get some healthy rats.
