Heron Rookery

Small coastal rookery in Morro Bay State Park where nesting herons, egrets and shorebirds gather—great for intimate wildlife and wetland scenes. Best during spring nesting (Mar–Jun) at dawn or late afternoon for soft light and courtship behavior. Low tide reveals reflections and foreground mudflats for composition. Park along State Park Rd; stay on trails/boardwalks and respect wildlife buffers. Bring long lens and expect windy conditions; weekdays and early hours are least crowded.
