Great Blue Herons nest in large numbers a few hundred yards upriver and visit this rocky area to feed. Due to the noise of traffic on the nearby bridge, plus the joggers, cyclists and fishermen who frequent the area, they are not nearly as shy as the birds I'm used to at Oxbow Meadows ... while it's not exactly a petting zoo, these birds will let you get pretty close. |
