Checked the Great Blue Heron nesting area at Lake Whetstone
in Montgomery Village this morning.  It looks like 6 to 8 active
nests so far.

Also saw 3 Cormorants, a pair of Hooded Mergansers, and
4 Ruddy Ducks, including a male in breeding plumage !!!
An incredible looking bird !  Plus the usual Canada Geese
and several Coots ...
