Herons at CB

Sue and I spotted a pair of Herons adding sticks to the nest near Cromwell Bottom this morning. We have been watching the nest closely for the last couple of weeks for signs of the birds returning,so I suspect this morning was the first time back at the nest site for the birds since last year.Les Midgley, Sue and I have been watching this nest since 2006 when we think the nest failed due to the birds being first year breeders.I am certain that at least two chicks were fledged last year. Hopefully the birds will nest again sucessfully again this year and the heronry will grow in yearsto come.
