In the following day’s paper:
The wrong animal was described in Friday’s Capital Region story about the death of Akiho Miyashiro at Thacher Park. It was a blue heron that ate the fish in Miyahiro’s Albany pond.
Side note: The only reason we know so much about Mr. Miyahiro, who was 87, is that he got lost in the fog and fell off a cliff. Had he died of a heart attack, the fate of his goldfish probably would not rated news coverage.
