Summer Fun by Kim Steininger

Wednesday Sep 2, 2009

So did anyone do anything fun this summer? :)

I bought a kayak which I’ve had a lot of fun with because I’m able to get to places that I wasn’t able to get to before. The last place I went was a small island near Ocean City. There were Little Blue Herons, Tri-colored Herons, Snowy Egrets, Great Egrets, Black-crown Night Herons and Black Skimmers nesting there!

Here are some pictures from the island. This is an adult Black-crowned Night Heron with some nesting material…
