The city is baely visablelike a shimmer on a hot street. These beautiful creatures and their habitat remind me of all those affected by the Gulf Oil gusher :(
Wonderful photos and great birds, Caite. I have to check this place out someday to see the birds. I lov ethe Black Skimmers and Egrets. Cool shot of the turtle!
Stunning shots! The city hovering in the background lends a certain magical feel--if nature could feel more magical--as if you've found a secret garden...
Wow!!! Awesome captures. I'llhave to check this area out. My sister-in-law has a place in Ocean City (NJ) that we visit every once in a while, I bet this isn't too far away.
Great captures. That egret's neck seems so impossibly long...

BethF, it is just a nice trip up Rt.9 or the Parkway (rest stop exit in Galloway) to Oceanville. There are some nice trails, the car road, towers. Then you can go to Smithville or Oyster Creek to eat!
I love the picture of the terp!
ReplyDeleteI scared the little thing...I felt bad.
ReplyDeleteIt does look a little freaked out! Great shots, though...

The terrapin seems to be in paradise. That is a gorgeous place. The photos are stunning.
ReplyDeleteWow, I would never believe that that place is that close to Atlantic City.
ReplyDeleteI just got tearful when I saw this beautiful creatures and thought of those poor oil slicked wildlife in the Gulf...awful.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. Amazing that such wildlife is within such a short distance of a big city. I'm so glad you shared.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos.
ReplyDeleteThe wildlife in our area is
still enjoying an oil-free
environment. But the winds may
change all of that .
Such poise and grace in the egret.
ReplyDeleteYour take beautiful photos!
Such beautiful captures of Nature.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots all.
I love your photos. Just lovely. I'm glad that everyone can see that New Jersey can be beautiful!
