York River State Park, 9801 York River Park Rd., Williamsburg, VA 23188.
Woodstock Pond

When

March 5, 2022. 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.

A breeding colony of great blue herons is not a rookery, it is a heronry (we didn't make that word up). Experience the sights and sounds of these iconic birds as they build nests and tend to their young along a terrific view of Woodstock Pond and the York River. A friendly ranger will help point them out to you.  Be sure to bring your own binoculars, cameras, or other viewing gear.
