So my daughter comes running up to me this morning as I am getting up and tells me that we have a heron in the back yard. Little does she know the dread this statement inspires.
Sure enough, it has been busy snacking away, and has managed to take every last one of my goldfish!!
I now have until spring to come up with a permanent solution (I like the net frame DrDave has mentioned), but in the meantime....
Tonight I set out the claymores!
Joking aside, this really sucks. 15 fish from 3 to 6 inches gone. I had recently created a cave like hide site for them with the vegetation die off, but I guess they hadn't gotten quite used to it yet.
