Kayaking Dennis Creek

We had a fun explore today. We drove to south Jersey and went to Jake's Landing, which is a boat ramp on Dennis Creek. The creek flows through salt marshes to Delaware Bay. Jake's Landing is marked by a red circle on the satellite view below. We put in there and headed west toward the bay.
The water was so beautiful and calm when we got to the bay that we paddled along the shore a bit to the green spot on the satellite view. This is what it looked like on the ground.After our 9 mile round trip paddle we loaded the boat back on the car and drove to Ocean City for dinner. We had yummy wood-fired pizza at Piccini's, where we have eaten on many previous trips.

Kayaking the Shrewsbury River

We kayaked from home today and saw lots of birds:
Many double-crested cormorants
Several great blue herons
A pair of common loons in winter plumage
A pair of swans
Several common terns
And some small gulls that were probably Bonaparte's
