Backyard Birding- The Haul Over

Location: 2445 The Haul Over
Max: 20
Cost: None for 2021 members; $5 donation for guests

We are going back! Our visit last May to Annalee Regenburg’s back yard was a witness of a bumper crop of Egret and Heron nests. We lost count at 100 nests. Annalee’s house backs up to the Great White Egret Rookery. The females sit on their nests all day and the males come into the nests in the evenings. We plan on observing this wonderful, sometimes noisy event. I’m sure we will see some snowy egrets and green herons, plus some night herons and Wood Storks too. They are all tucked in there too. One year we even saw Cattle Egrets. Annalee said the first nest was March 1st. Walk around back when you arrive.

As always, be sure to bring your water, binoculars, hats and sunscreen.
