At sunset last night, a flock of 7 Black-crowned Night-Herons flew
over our house in South Burlington near the Shelburne town border.
They looked like they were heading to Shelburne Pond. These birds
might be nesting on the Champlain Islands (e.g., Four Brothers) and
returning to the 'mainland' at night to feed.
