Life on the Creek! The beautiful Green Heron has been a frequent visitor to Ayers Creek and is sighted regularly when paddling both the north and south routes. They are sometimes hard to spot, blending in with the marsh shrubs and grasses and standing statue still in search of their prey.
The Green Heron typically eats small fish, frogs, or other aquatic species, but may also eat small animals such as leeches or mice.
Many consider the Green Heron to be one of the world's most intelligent birds. This is primarily due to its feeding method of dropping food, insects, or small objects on the water's surface to attract fish. The Green Heron is one of the few known tool using species.
Keep a look out and maybe you will catch a glimpse of the Green Heron the next time you paddle on Ayers Creek.

Summer is not over yet!The kids are back to school and the temperatures are cool enough to sleep with the windows open, but that doesn't mean summer is over! The best three weeks of summer have just begun. This is our favorite time of year and one of the best ways to enjoy it is kayaking and exploring our local creeks and marshes. The crisp morning air, clear skies, and brilliant sunshine make for a perfect early morning paddle. What better way to start or close your day than with a peaceful paddle on Ayers Creek?
