| Hayes, F. E., and C. Rooks. 2001. Bait-fishing by the Striated Heron (Butorides striatus) in Trinidad. Pitirre 14:3-4 Abstract.--Bait-fishing, a form of tool use rarely reported in birds, has been observed most frequently in Butorides herons. We report two observations (and a probable third) of adult Striated Herons (B. striatus) using bread to attract fish at Pointe-a-Pierre, Trinidad, constituting the second reported incidence of bait-fishing by this species in South America.
