Green Heron Patch

The stocky and secretive Green Heron is a solitary hunter of small fish in dense marshes, ponds, and wooded riverbanks. A richly colored bird of chestnut and iridescent green, the Green Heron often raises and lowers its crest as it waits patiently for prey, and will sometimes drop “bait,” like a feather or twig, on the water’s surface to lure it in. Bird Collective will donate 20% of the profits from this patch to support Alabama Audubon’s monitoring and conservation of nesting Green Herons in that state. All embroidered bird patches have an iron-on backing, but the adhesive is temporary. For durability, we recommend sewing or using a permanent, flexible fabric glue. Dimensions: 1.8" wide x 2" high
