An ordinary day at Dekorte Park on a Monday. It was special seeing the juvenile Yellow-crowned Night Heron and the Great Egret catching the crab.

Dekorte Park 07/09/26

Solo walk
The boardwalk portion of the Marsh Discovery Trail was closed for repair for the longest time. It reopened recently and this was the first time I was able to walk it; a very nice "open air" blind has been added. The park is a good location for viewing shorebirds.
