Nature Done Wright

Despite some uncertain weather, Bergen SWAN's Spatterdock paddle yesterday afternoon turned out great, with swallows and swifts zipping all around us.

That's ace nature photographer Ron S hields and terrific ace naturalist/paddler Mary Ann Schran above. 

Some of Ron's nifty shots follow.

Highlights included Bald Eagle, Wood Duck, Green Heron, and all those swifts and swallows — while having a great time for a great cause. Full list follows as well.
