EARLY SPRING AT HUNTINGTON BEACH, SC

I spent two days in late Feb. at this favorite site near Pawleys Island SC. The weather was warm, in the 70s while there. It was a little early for migrating woods birds, but the herons were beginning to nest in the back swamp areas. There were the usual shore birds and Brown Pelicans were plentiful. I enjoyed getting some good shots of this boxy but graceful critter, especially open mouth shots of the biggest mouth on the water! There were Buffleheads, terns, anhingas, egrets, and a few regular woods birds. As always, it was an enjoyable time at this ever productive bird sanctuary. See pictures below.
