In a natural system creatures do not have enemies, (the word enemy is a human concept), they have predators (that want to eat them or their young) and competitors (for their food supply). So please do not use enemy when referring to a natural system.

The heron helps itself to avoid predation and improve its food gathering abilities by being well camouflaged so that it blends in with its background and remains very still for long periods. When disturbed by a predator, being a bird, it can of course take to the air to escape.
