HEREON. Lev 11:19; Deut 14:18. At least seven species of heron are found in Palestine. These well-known birds frequent marshes and rivers, in which their long legs fit them to wade, and from which they obtain their food of fish, frogs, and insects. Most critics hold that the bird of the above references was not the heron, but Tristram, one of the latest and best, sustains the reading of the A.V.
