Herons at the park - December 21, 2011
Maybe Great Blue Herons will make a comeback at Beacon Hill Park. Two of them were standing by the pond - this one was the tamest.

Beacon Hill Park April 9, 2010
On a walk in the park...
The Easter Lilies (white fawn lilies) were blooming.
One of the few remaining great blue herons in the park stood by a pond and caught a small fish while I was watching. Just a few years ago there was a colony of a few hundred herons with about 70 nests. That was before the bald eagles went on a rampage. As far as I know, the heronry has not been re-established.
