Product Details

#22 Green Heron

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.

Bought as a stocking stuffer for my adult son who loves green herons. Great patch!

I bought this for a friend who had just added a Green Heron to her life list. She was thrilled at seeing the live bird and equally thrilled to get the patch. The patch is beautifully colored and is most close to the actual colors of the bird. Thanks for a great product!

Love the patch! It's so cute and does an amazing job showing off how colorful these birds are! I think it would be fun if there was another Green Heron patch with its neck extended like a parascope.

I’m impressed this patch came out so good!!!! There are so many fine lines and intricate details but they’re all clean and each colour on the patch is beautiful! Not to mention the thin leg, we’ll see how that holds up over time, but I have high hopes! The other patches my friends have gotten have held up extremely well.

Ended a patch to put on a tear on jeans. I’m a biologist that does nesting bird surveys. The patch is perfect. Has all the physical characteristics of the heron, without looking too cartoony. It is really cute!

The patch itself and the design and embroidery is really beautiful. That being said, i feel these patches are misnamed. They are NOT iron-on patches, they are purely sew-on patches. While the packaging and online description does say "sew on for permanence", the term "iron on" really shouldn't even be in the product description at all, as it doesn't give the wearer any sense of just how weak and temporary the adhesive actually is. I took great care to iron these on with lots of heat and steam, only to have them all fall off about 2 hours into their first wear. I ended up hand sewing them on which is fine, but it was time consuming and may not be for everyone (folks with arthritis for example) which is why I do feel the term "iron on" should be completely removed from this product, with more language and guidance for the customer around just how temporary that adhesive really is.

I think that all of the patches are terrific. This one is especially so because my wife, who is a paddler (solo canoe and kayak), would often see green herons in her jaunts around the lake. Great detail.

Love the green heron! It was my first bird to have a hands-on experience with. The patch is great and really catches the vidid colors displayed by the bird!

Beautiful patch for a beautiful bird

Kathleen R.

Shipping took a while (I live in Canada, so that's understandable) but the colours are bright, great quality! I love it! I was so excited to find a green heron patch because there's very little merchandise out there with green herons. Thanks!!
