Our range of heron statues including resin and brass heron sculptures as well as garden resin heron statues. We also feature unique heron gifts where applicable. |

| Herons are perhaps one of the popular coastal wading birds known around next to cranes sometimes making their visibility felt along the oceans and even inland ponds. Their tall regal posture and definitive character makes them very colorful and enchanting birds, a beautiful sight for the American coastal regions. There are many types of herons known to man but perhaps the most largest and widespread of the lot here in the US include the Great Blue Heron which can reach up to 50" in height. Herons are generally private birds and when it comes down to their mating season, they demand the privacy intensely. As such, people need to be more aware of leaving these birds to their personal time lest they abandon their nests and the babies in fear! Culturally, herons carry much symbolic meaning in many cultures, east and west. The Chinese consider the herons a symbol of purity and long life while the ancient Egyptians considered the heron a symbol of light. Native Americans looked upon the herons as curious birds which garnered much wisdom and knowledge and seeing a heron before a hunting expedition signaled a good hunt ahead.
