Over the past few years, we've noticed some Great Blue Heron activity on a
ridge just south of Abingdon on Rt. 75. On Friday night, we spotted about
4 nests and 3-4 birds. This is the approximate location of the nests:

The spot can be viewed from the Highlands Fellowship parking lot:

We'll keep an eye on things until the leaves come in.

Editor's Note: The herons appear to be of normal stature; the nesting site
itself is "small" in comparison to others locally. SAH.
