How to use "Heron" in context?
The heron is a large, long-necked aquatic bird with a slender build and a long, pointed bill. It is a favourite food of many predators, and while they can fly well, they prefer to swim and perch. The male is generally larger than the female. They are the fastest birds in water, able to fly at speeds up to 135 kilometres per hour. The plumage of the Heron is a deep green, with a characteristic white lining to the wings, and a black head and neck. They can live for up to 50 years.
