However, they sometimes move around energetically during the day, living quite a flexible lifestyle. They are often seen standing still by the water, sometimes in pairs, and sometimes leisurely by themselves. Their relaxed demeanor adds to their charm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The striated heron even uses “bait” to catch fish! It drops small twigs or leaves onto the water\u2019s surface, and when curious fish approach, it swiftly catches them. This fishing-like technique has been observed in places like Suizenji Jojuen Garden in Kumamoto. Isn\u2019t it surprising to know that a bird can fish like this?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Next time you spot a striated heron standing by the water, try watching closely to see what it does next. Until next time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
