Great Blue Heron Great blue herons are very wary, however, and take flight the moment they are disturbed. They have excellent eyesight and hearing and attempting to approach undetected is nearly always futile. Awkward as bagpipes at take off, they quickly regain their composure in the air. With their six-foot wing span, slow wing beat, and long trailing legs, there's no mistaking the great blue heron's graceful flight and prehistoric appearance. E.
