    Just from the car window one could count 35 herons. Here are a few.

    I've seen groups of herons before but never as many as 35 before. Obviously the fishing must be good or they wouldn't all congregate in the same area.

    Oh that is very cool. Have you ever seen them fly in a flock?

    No. They may gather together but they are solitary.
