A green heron stalks its prey. I love these little guys. |
There are few things that beat a day in the swamp. The only thing that could have made this day better is if I hadn't listened to the "weatherman", who predicted cloudy, cloudy, cloudy skies. There was no mention of sun whatsoever. Therefore, I didn't bring a hat or sunblock. Why lug around extra gear, if you don't have to. I know. I know. At my advanced age, I should know better. I'm just too darned trusting.
You can stop laughing, Jen.
I'm feeling a little ill, but looking at the pics of my wonderful swamp critters makes me feel better.
Btw, these were taken in a swamp in High Point State Park in New Jersey.
A green heron preens. |

A female grackle sits on her nest. Must have gotten a late start, because the eggs don't seem to have hatched, yet. |
A mama hooded merganser and her chicks. I couldn't get very close to these guys. |
