Shownotes

In this episode, John Page Williams shares some fabulous facts about one of the Chesapeake's best-loved birds, the great blue hero (Ardea herodias), as well as eight other heron species which make their homes in our region. The Chesapeake has a rich community of herons, but their greatest threat is their need for isolated, protected, mature woodlands for breeding.

Please rate and review, it really helps us to spread these seasonal stories to new listeners.
