Mangaiti’s very own Jurassic Park

The pine trees in the north end of Mangaiti Gully behind Rototuna Primary School have several pairs of white-faced herons nesting in them every season. Watching the activity of these three looked and sounded very prehistoric. Double click on the video to enlarge picture. This video was taken on an old iPhone. It would have be so much better if taken with a good video camera/phone with a zoom lens.
