When you say “lingering” great blue heron, does that mean they aren’t supposed to be in thos area right now?
A few G.B. Herons hang around every year, but most head south. Maybe because it’s a mild winter, but we are seeing more birds that typically migrate to warmer climes…
I looked at a range map from Cornell, and it looks like we are in a “year round” range for GB Herons. But it has been a warm winter: I saw my first robin this past Monday by the entrance to DeKorte.
