RSPB St Albans are once again running a HeronWatch at Verulamium Park this spring.

Volunteers will be set up with telescopes at the edge of the lake near the Fighting Cocks pub giving visitors a great opportunity to watch the nesting Grey Herons and Little Egrets.

From 10 April to 22 May, come down to the lake between 11.00am - 1.00pm every weekend and bank holiday to learn more about these fascinating birds, as eggs hatch to chicks and grow into young birds.

If you would like to volunteer as a HeronWatcher, covering a one hour shift, or more, please email Dan Fletcher       st-albans-rspb@hotmail.co.uk .
