About GREAT BLUE HERON NATURE RESERVE SOCIETY
The Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve is a 130-hectare site (325 acre) located on the un-dyked floodplain of the Vedder River in Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada.
Managed by the Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve Society, the site is known for a large breeding colony of Great Blue Herons. Each year hundreds of Great Blue Heron arrive to nest in the Cottonwood trees. In 2024 there were over 102 active nests. The Great Blue Heron is an at risk species in BC.
The site also protects a wide variety of wildlife, vegetation as well as species at risk such as the Western Painted Turtle, the Salish Sucker, and Northern Red Legged Frog.
