Herons of the family Ardeidae primarily inhabit freshwater and brackish environments, such as wetlands, rivers, and lakes. While some species may occasionally be found in coastal areas or estuaries, they generally do not reside in true saltwater habitats. Their preference for freshwater ecosystems is due to the availability of suitable prey and nesting sites. However, they can adapt to various environments, including regions with mixed salinity.
