First, the awful picture:

I had to zoom to the max, crop, add flash, and reduce back lighting. Sorry it's so bad!
Anyway, I think this is a Turkey Vulture. Am I correct? I know the picture is terrible.
All my large fish are gone, I wonder if he had something to do with it?

The raccoons don't bother my pond. The Heron does, of course. But this thing... he is GIANT.
So, now that my last big Koi is gone, I've decided to stock my pond with free fish. Native fish.

The birds can eat all they want, and I don't have to worry.
We're going to the beach today, so I'm going to bring a bucket and let the kids catch some fish.

I know we have Bluegill, crappie, Bass, & Walleye, in our lake. Don't know what any of them look like, though.

Gosh, considering how many years I've kept fish (30+ years?) you'd think I'd know that by now.
