Spring is here and the herons are getting active

The great blue herons are beginning to sport their breeding plumage on their breasts and get their nests ready.


The black crowned night herons are starting to show their breeding "pig tail"



While the juvenile night herons are mixed in with the colony.


It won't be long until the river banks will be covered with heron and egret colonies...stay tuned.
