Herons recognize their owners. Although herons are sensitive and afraid of humans, and will usually fly away immediately when they see humans, they are very smart birds and have strong learning abilities. As long as humans care for them and get along well with them, they will be willing to contact humans. Over time, they will develop feelings for humans and recognize their owners.

How to make a heron recognize its owner

1. First of all, do not chase the heron away, and do not deliberately scare it to make it fearful.

2. Feed herons frequently, which can effectively shorten the distance between you and them.

3. Feed the heron regularly every day, and the heron will come to you habitually and gradually become dependent on you. At this time, you can have some interactions with the heron, such as petting the heron.

4. After the heron feels that you are not harming it, it will slowly put down its guard and start to recognize its owner.
