The great blue heron is a year-round inhabitant of the Pacific Northwest Coast. Heron frequently adorns the tops of Kwakwaka’wakw masks and in some oral traditions, Heron might appear as a watchman or represent patience and grace. The Heron can be identified by its very long neck and long thin legs.
