The Least Bittern and Common Gallinule that have been seen hanging out in the DeKorte marshes the past couple weeks made a joint appearance Thursday. They’re not exactly best buddies, keeping their distance a bit. But could this be the start of a wonderful friendship? Thanks to Greg Miller for the photo.

Friday, Aug. 7, 7:30 – 9 pm
River Barge Park, Carlstadt

Tonight’s weather forcast shows low 80’s, the perfect evening to bring your lawn chair or stroll the pier while listening to the sweet jazz sounds of guitarist Rick Pressler and sax player Steve Kaplan at River Barge Park.

Reminder, the barge can get a little chilly in the evenings, so a light sweater might go a long way.    Register here.
