What's going on in the river?

 

It was great to get back out on the river for the Selden Island Exploration. The weather cooperated, always a nice thing! Also, everyone had a wonderful time, learned all about the island, histroy, flora and fauna. We will be getting another date for October this year SOON! We saw many Ospreys, one was taking a bath on the edge of the river. A great view of a Black Vulture. Also, some young Double Crested Coromorants (see photo of the day, below)


NEST UPDATES:

They are incubating, lay date 05-04!!! We saw her today, 05-18. She is deep in there.
