| Description |
-Photo by Kathy Munsel, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife- The Blue Heron Rookery Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) gather in colonies in January to mid-March. Males choose the nest sites and court females. Pair formation and nest building begin in min February and eggs are laid from late February through April. Both sexes incubate and feed the young. Clutch size is usually 2-6 eggs. Incubation takes 28 days and eggs hatch from early April until the end of May. At least one adult is present at the nest almost continuously until 3-4 weeks after eggs hatch. By week 7 adults return to nests only to feed chicks. Young fledge from early June through mid-August, typically at 7-8 weeks of age. |
