In the 40's towards the end of next week, so hope to get down if one of the days is dry. Something less than two hour's drive for us. We also enjoy the Forsythe Refuge, which <30min away, and Eastern Neck, which is quite a bit closer to you.

On our last visit an immature bald eagle grabbed a fish and flew to one of the lower limbs in a large tree about 30' from where we were sitting. He/she clamped the fish under its foot commenced to feed. Soon there was a line of four black vultures on the same limb about 6' further out. Slowly they would inch closer to the eagle. When they got too close he would squawk and ruffle his feathers and they would scurry back out to 6' and everything would start over. Most entertaining.

Rarely occurs to me to take pic's, but I'll take along my camera next trip. Or at least remember to use my phone.
