We visited Anderson Creek Marsh recently and found some exceptional birding.
We saw hundreds of peeps, a few Caspian Terns, several Yellow-crowned night herons, plus Snowy and Great Egrets and yellowlegs.
We also saw a Northern Harrier have a run-in with several terns — all in all, a good day to be on the marsh.
The marsh is located on the Hackensack River just south of Harmon Cove in Secaucus.

Are you sure those are royal terns? From those pictures, they seem to be lacking the shaggy feathers on the back of their head. They might be Caspians. Is Anderson Creek accessable any way other than viewing from the river?

We were wondering if we could have permission to print some of your credited photos in our newspaper.
