Today's adventures included an early morning walk to the Pine Island Sanctuary followed by a walk through the Currituck Banks National Estuarine Reserve Access Trail.  The first trail featured birds and butterflies plus a great view of the Currituck Sound.  The second had views of the Sound but few birds were heard.  I did see 2 new life butterflies - Broad-winged Skipper & Delaware Skipper.
