The Big Dead-Fish Clean-Up
A huge thank you to the volunteers who pitched in yesterday to remove all those dead fish from the Celery…
Here's a group shot of most of the folks who participated in the BCAS/NJSEA 10th anniversary walk today — more than 30 folks by the time we got rolling.
Highlights included Least Terns, Forster's Terns with fish, and Osprey with fish — not counting an escaped/released wedding dove.
Also:
* A pair of male Ruddies with bills so blue they could have been painted.
* Several cool butterflies and a Snowberry Clear-winged Moth.
* A runner drinking/cooling off at the birdbath. (Just after the catbird. I got there too late to say anything.)
A big thank you to Don Torino for being the maestro all these years!
