It’s that time of year again.  In early Jan, our local herons began occupying the nests in the heronry and staking their territory.  Mid February and there is the start of nest building / repairing taking off in ernest.  It will become increasingly noisy at the heronry now and no twig in or near the water will be safe from inspection and collection to add to the nests.    

I never tire watching herons and it’s good to see our local heronry being successful.
