Information about the Goliath Heron:

The Goliath Heron is a very large wading bird of the heron family Ardeidae. It is found in sub-Saharan Africa, with smaller numbers in Southwest and South Asia. This is the world’s largest heron with a height of 47–60 inches (120–152 cm) with a wingspan of 73–91 inches (185–230 cm) weighing 8.8–11pounds (4–5 kg).The Goliath heron if rarely found far from a water source, preferring to fly along waterways rather than move over land. Important habitats can include lakes, swamps, mangrove wetlands, reefs with few cool water, sometimes river deltas. It typically is found in shallows, though can be observed near deep water over dense water vegetation. Goliath herons can even be found in small watering holes.

The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:
• Paper thickness: 10.3 mil

Fine art illustration of a Goliath Heron (Ardea goliath.) The illustration is available in black and white or color.

Artist’s notes:

The Goliath Heron was completed in the summer of 2015. I have always loved drawing these wonderful birds, and was getting ready to put a collage of them together. I realized I didn’t have any species native to Africa. Doing some research, I learned about this amazing species. Naturally, being from Africa it was literally a goliath heron! The drawing is based on a photo by Arjan Haverkamp and was used with permission.
