Great Blue Heron Rookery
Pictures from 2010
If you follow the trail down by the Pagan river past the kayak launch ramp the trail it leads to a small island that is connected to the mainland by a foot bridge. Once on the Island if you look to your right at the top of the trees you will see a Great Blue Heron rookery. This is a place where the Great Blue Heron will nest and raise young every year. This rookery looks to be a relatively new site for these birds with a population of about 4-6 breeding pairs. However, birds are accustomed to returning to the site where they themselves where born to nest and as such, the rookery will get larger as the years gone on.
