A couple of shots from Avon by the Sea on my way home from Asbury on Memorial Day.

The “Prince of Darkness” ( a mute swan) is on patrol round the clock when the princess is sitting on her eggs. The nest is on an estuary behind my townhouse.

Even chases me on land.

There are two families of Canada Geese out back. One group has 4 little ones, the other pair only one. The babies need to avoid the mute swan and the snapping turtles in the estuary to survive.

That’s me. Scott tripped the shutter.

I followed this female around for a while at Island Beach State Park. She went back and forth between the dunes and the beach. She didn’t seem to mind me tagging along. This is the first time I photographed a fox on the beach.

Visited the Edwin B. Forsythe Refuse located in Brigintine, NJ. I was greeted at the gate by a cattle egret, which are pretty rare in NJ and on the “threatened” list. The first several photos are the cattle egret.
