| The weather finally cooled off in South Jersey. I celebrated with a trip to Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge, despite clouds and drizzle. The overcast was so thick that it obscured the buildings of Atlantic City across the bay. I think the big gray shadow is the Ocean Casino. |
 |
| Swamp rose mallow flowers were blooming everywhere. I call them marsh mallows. :-) |
 |
| It was moody and lovely. And while I was looking along the shore through my camera lens... |
 |
| A black-crowned night heron literally poked its head into the frame. |
 |
| And stayed for this pose. Night herons, as the name implies, are mainly active at night and at dusk. But they come out on dull days like yesterday. What a nice bonus to go with the cool breezes. Click to enlarge. |
 |
| And it happened again later. Another one flew in and landed near where I was standing. |
 |
| Love the big yellow feet. |
