Goldfish hiding!
(1/1)
gardenqueen:
For some reason this year I am not seeing the goldfish come to the surface when I feed them. I know they are eating because obviously the flakes are disappearing. Could this be due to the weather conditions or have they been disturbed by something?
hippydave:
most likely a heron has been visiting and when they see you approaching they dive for cover for safety.
gardenqueen:
Thank you for that information! That would explain them hiding!
ashurjames:
What actual heron are, How they looks ?

Ashurjames,
Its a big, ugly thing. You can't miss one when it is standing over your pond spearing the fish.
Here are some lovely pictures of our European heron. http://www.peterpreece.com/page5.htm
