Whistlewood ... in pensive mood

White-faced Herons

17/1/2020

0 Comments

 
In Spring 2019 two White-faced herons build a nest high in one of the pine trees on the roadside near Wimbourne. After one unsuccessful try, eventually two young birds hatched. As they grew and became more daring they could be seen walking along the branches of the tree. At this stage they were still being fed by their parents. Soon they were flying short distances to other trees, and eventually came lower and lower and down to the ground in Whistlewood.
