Majestic fliers with a wingspan of six feet! We see Great Blue Herons in a variety of places around Loudoun County. In March or April they started nesting and now they are busy raising their young. For those living in the Ashburn area, there’s a wonderful heron rookery where over 50 Great Blue Heron nests can be seen. It’s amazing.
