Photo Walks with Mike Hannisian - Saturday, August 9th, 2014

CMBO's first Saturday Photo Walk was greeted with wonderful weather and lots of photo subjects. It's August in Cape May, so there birds posing for us, including Great and Snowy Egrets, a singing Song Sparrow, and a Field Sparrow. Odes (dragonflies and damselflies) were represented by the likes of Blue Dasher and Needham's Skimmer. We were also rewarded with a handsome, well lit Bullfrog and, of course fields of Swamp Rose-Mallow. With any luck, this was just the first of many successful Saturday Photo Walks from now until the New Jersey Audubon Autumn Weekend in late October.
