A question of scale

1a. At 7 am looked out of back window – a heron on the top of the chimney of the neighbouring house, looking benignly around. Impressive! Never before seen here. A question of scale, note that a heron measure in at 92 cms whilst a wren measures just 9.5 cms.
1b. Fishie seems to have gone missing. This one aged goldfish (12cm) sharing a small pond with 41 frogs is no more.
1c. Can this be a coincidence?
1d. Is neighbour legally responsible?
2. In Audubon’s Birds of America (which I have looked at) he drew them all life size. The book is published in a print size called double elephant – which would make a good top for a dining room table - another question of scale.
