"A White Heron" is told from the point of view of an omniscient narrator.

The omniscient narrator is the voice in which a story is written that is outside the story and knows everything about the characters and events in the story.

"A White Heron" is a short story by Sarah Orne Jewett. The story focuses on a young city girl named Sylvia who came to live with her grandmother in the country. She meets a young ornithologist hunter seeking to find a rare bird that he recently spotted in the area.
