It is just before sunset in the Fall of the year. The waterwheel at the old grist mill is still working although now the rustic building is most often used as a banquet hall. The elusive blue heron keeps a keen eye on the fish at the water's edge and observes all his surroundings at the same time. Above him geese divert the attention of three Labradors and an Irish Setter. As the dogs turn back to watch the heron, he's gone! The relationship between man and wildlife is one of modern civilization's continuing dilemmas. The blue heron fishing is a symbol of good ecology. This is proof that the contestants are capable of living in harmony.
