So that is the reason why they put pissing baby statues near their ponds.

That's why some people keep a heron statue near ponds, to prevent fish hunting birds from doing what they do... Are your fish ok?

Decoy herons actually encourage herons to land as they see it there and think “that must be a good fishing spot!”

A heron. We would see one on the tree over our pond in the backyard from time to time.

Such a shame… I lost 3 x fish to a heron last year so I put fishing line high across my garden… this year a heron came but decided not to risk entering my garden… worked a treat! 😊

I have had a goldfish pond for many years. No problems with predators until one day. Dang Heron did a lot of damage in just a couple of hours. I put field fencing over it, looks ugly. However I haven’t seen the bird ever again.

Now that you saw what happened, maybe do some research to how else to protect the fish from predators. I’m not an expert, but that’s what I would do. I would hate this from happening again 😣

You mention oil on the water. Perhaps the heron brought it from polluted waters nearby. Or is it natural from plant material in the pond?
