A New Park - The Rookery Preserve

A new park has opened near the ranch.

Its a blue heron rookery.

The large nests are easy to spot now before the leaves are on the trees.

Can you see the four herons?

The new park, called Rookery Preserve, has an observation platform and ample parking.
How fortunate we are to have this property donated for a county park.
