	Heron - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The herons are wading birds in the Ardeidae family.
		The classification of the individual heron species is fraught with difficulty, and there is still no clear consensus about the correct placement of many species into either of the two major genera, Ardea and Egretta.
		Although herons resemble birds in some other families, such as the storks, ibises and spoonbills, they differ from these in flying with their necks retracted, not outstretched.

	Heron outline by David Lowe
		Heron discovers his wife's handwriting in the margins of his son's UFO books, also detailed notes about abductions in her diary, references to something called Project Fastwalker, and the 13th Floor.
		Heron does some research and discovers that Parrish threw away a respectable career as a physicist to become a defacto UFO counsellor; someone who listens to people who've been traumatised by alien beings and tries to help them.
		Heron spends an afternoon listening to snippets of different tapes as the events described are re-enacted in his mind's eye: sightings, abductions, sexual attacks.

	Heron of Alexandria, Inventions, Biography, Science (1/2)
		Heron from Alexandria (Heron Alexandrinus) was a Mathematician, Physicist and Engineer who lived in 10-70 AD but some references consider also 150 AD which is probably wrong, as in one of his works he referred to a recent eclipse which is now thought to have occurred in 13 March 62 AD.
		Technically speaking, Heron's clever inventions were particularly notable for their incorporation of the sorts of self-regulating feedback control systems that form the bedrock of cybernetics; like today's toilets, his "inexhaustible goblet" regulated its own level with a floating mechanism.
		Heron describes constructions similar to the Theodolit used for measurements of angles and other devices such as the odometer used to measure distances.

	Hinterland Who's Who - Great Blue Heron
		In others, the herons sleek their plumage, extend their necks forward, and tilt their heads from side to side so that they may look upwards, a posture they often use when predators and herons fly over the foraging grounds.
		The Great Blue Heron has the widest distribution in Canada of all herons: it ranges from the Maritime provinces in the east across southern Canada to the Pacific Ocean, and north along the entire length of the British Columbia Pacific coast to Alaska’s Prince William Sound in the west (see map).
		When captured prey is too large to be gulped down immediately or has dangerous spines, the heron drops the prey back into the water and grabs hold of it repeatedly and violently with its beak until the catch is dazed or the spines snap.

	The Great Blue Heron (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		By silently waiting in the shallows, the heron is rewarded with the approach of fish, amphibians, and crayfish, which are quickly caught by the spear-like bill.
		The Great Blue Heron uses a wide variety of strategies for hunting food, partially because this heron is found in a wider range of habitats across more of North America than any other heron.
		The adult herons place food into the open mouths of the young for the first three weeks, by then the young will actually pull the parent's bill into the nest, sometimes even reaching into the adult's open mouth for food.

	Walkabout - Heron Island
		Located 72 km northeast of Gladstone and 539 km north of Brisbane, Heron Island is a small coral cay which is part of the Great Barrier Reef.
		It wasn't until January 12, 1843 that the HMS Fly anchored off the island and the ship's naturalist, Joseph Bette Jukes, noting the reef herons, named it after the herons which are part of the rich bird life which inhabits the island.
		Because there is a deep sea channel between Heron Island and Wistari reef the ability to explore the edge of the cay, while remaining in calm waters, is unequalled.
