CONTEST ALERT***

The Forks, Knives, & Spoonbills art contest is now open through February 18! All South Carolina residents are eligible to enter this free contest. Artists may work in any medium, but each piece must feature all six of this year’s featured species. Today we are highlighting the green heron.
These dark colored wading birds are year-round residents in South Carolina. They are about 16 to 22 inches high and can be found near lakes, ponds, and marshes, where they hunt for fish and other aquatic species with their dagger-like bill. These fairly solitary birds are considered ambush predators. Although this species is in a mild decline, although they are still fairly common.
