Directions to our New Observation Site:
Follow signs from the Stow Lake Boathouse. Click here for a printable map.
We start our interpretive program in April. The public can experience the excitement of these four foot tall birds with six foot wingspans flying in and out of the nests-brooding the chicks, feeding the chicks, etc. Naturalists and interns from San Francisco Nature Education are stationed at the observation site with spotting scopes, ready to offer spectacular views into the Great Blue Heron nests and answer questions.
