Kayaking Sunday & Monday (May 15 & 16)


Sunday and Monday I kayaked the Cape Island Creek behind/beside Cape May with my sister, Jenny. We kayaked at low (starting to rise) tide to see the shorebirds feeding on the mudflats. The weather was in the mid 60's with a nice breeze to keep the bugs away. We saw Semipalmated Plovers(1), Semipalmated Sandpipers(2), Least Sandpipers, Willet, Clapper Rail(3), Forster's Terns, Least Terns, Short-billed Dowitchers(4 & 5), Laughing Gulls, Snowy & Great Egrets, Osprey along with other birds and gulls. (Numbers correspond to pictured bird)
