I've heard a red herring can be a real diversion...

Chase, there are a number of threads here about Blue Herons as they can potentially be a real issue. Just do a little research in the archives and you'll find some threads. Here's one of many to get you started:

You must have worked the night shift! You need sleep! grin

Chase - you can get permission to get rid of them. It takes a federal permit. I don't remember how you get the permit, but I'd start with the WVDNR. If that doesn't work, try a call to Dr. Semmons at WVU.
