So a while back I had a Heron visit:

Today I decided to get an early start on mucking, as I've slacked off a bit over the Winter. Suddenly I see a flash of orange. I figure, "that has to be a bright leaf". I continue mucking, when the leaf moves in away that leaves generally don't. Sure enough, I have one lone survivor from the Great Heron Massacre of 2009!
I decided to stop mucking after this, combine with the discovery of a tadpole in some of the muck I pulled out that was nearly as big as my thumb.
Life is amazing sometimes.
Off to the local mega-depot to get some netting supplies. Between that & the dogs, that &@#$ing heron shouldn't stand a chance.
