Here’s a shot of a young Clapper in Saw Mill WMA from kayak Monday.

These guys are tough to see, let alone photograph. Thanks, Chris!

If you registered too late to get a seat on our Birding By Boat event that has now been rescheduled for Tuesday, July 22, you might consider signing up for an NJMC pontoon-boat cruise out of River Barge Park this Saturday morning at 8:30 a.m.

It is a low-tide trip, so you might see some nifty Diamondback Terrapins and other critters in the Saw Mill Creek Marsh along the Hackensack River.

To make reservations,  call (201) 460-4677.

Regina Geoghan, a friend of this blog, has a nice post on wildnewjersey.tv about her love for wildflowers, including many photos taken at DeKorte Park.
