April 2 and April 30 Spring Viewing Events

March 21, 2016 By Marla Master

HeronWatch2016This spring we will hosting 2 viewing events! We will have telescopes setup and our HHH naturalists on hand. The events are free and everybody is welcome so please help us spread the news!

April 2, 2016
Observe the herons as they do some nest building – the male herons bring the twigs, and if acceptable, the female places it in the nest. Watch them incubate eggs and protect the colony, or stand in the water with their steely gaze ready to spear a fish.

April 30, 2016
We will hopefully be able to see some heron chicks. Bonus is, we will be celebrating the chicks hatching with birthday cake!

Join us for one or both events at Commodore Park near the Ballard Locks Fish Ladder on the Magnolia side. Drop by anytime between 1:00 and 3:00 pm!
