The 2019 Heron Season Begins

February 5, 2019 By Marla Master

As of mid-December, herons are slowly returning to the Ballard Locks, perched in their favorite deodar cedar tree. It is typically in February that they select a mate and a nest. They will rebuild existing nests, or start from scratch, often taking twigs from old nests. It’s an exciting time!

If you would like to get involved with HHH and learn more about herons, we’d love to hear from you! We have many opportunities such as habitat restoration, heron colony monitoring, assistance with our website, membership and fundraising. We’re happy to work within your schedule and with any amount of time you have to offer.

We’re a nice, friendly bunch. Contact us at info@heronhelpers.org to learn more!

It’s our favorite party of the year!

Join us on Saturday June 9th from 10am – 1pm at Commodore Park (in between the Train Bridge and the Fish Ladder on the Magnolia side of the Locks) for our Annual Heron Chick Birthday Celebration!

We’ll be serving cake, and have telescopes set up so you can get see the chicks up close. Our naturalists will be on hand to answer questions. Learn about your neighbors – the great blue heron at Seattle’s largest colony.
