We had a Blue Heron eat several of our biggest Koi. More expensive than a sushi dinner.
The Blue Heron and any migratory bird is protected by federal law and one is not supposed to harass them at all. My dogs did not follow the federal laws as they can't read. It was amazing to see a 4 foot tall bird fly off in a flash.
After that we put up a chris cross of fishing line over the pond. It is much like a star of David shape only a little lopsided because of bushes on the edge of the pond.
That has kept the Blue Heron away. We did have two Koi vanish this spring. We don't know if it was a raccoon, snake, cat, or a bird that got two of them.
