While out for a drive, I stumbled upon this tiny, little park...
Gull Island County Park
Close to home, in Point Pleasant, NJ,
I have written about our adventures in the town of Point Pleasant in past entries.

I was shocked to find this beautiful Blue Heron at this time of year.
I don't usually see them during the winter.

I was also excited to see these Male Red Breasted Merganser,
they must be staying here for winter.
Looks like he caught supper.

Great photos! Love these incredible creatures, Debbie! Thanks for sharing!
All of the snow from that big storm is gone.
Ohhhh, snap! My favorite! Beautiful heron! They stay here year round, but it's funny how they leave other places in the winter even though the climate is similar. I love the Mergansers, too!
Ahhh....nature is captured by you creating magic upon my senses dear friend!!!
Incredible photos and lovely views
i think in winters all these birds travel to our part of land
Hello, looks like a pretty place. I love the Heron and the wonderful Red-Breasted Merganser. Beautiful photos. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend!
loving your critters
Wonderful Great Blue Heron photos! (My favorite bird) And those Mergansers are very interesting to see too.
Have a great weekend!
Once again, you've shared such amazing photos. Yes, I agree the Blue Heron is beautiful! I'm glad you found him. :)
xoxo
Looks like you made a great discovery.I'm looking forward to seeing more pictures.
Lovely to see these photographs Debbie, I think the Blue Heron looks great.
All the best Jan
Oh, great photos, Debbie! I especially love the ones of the Red Breasted Mergansers, I don't think we have those out here.
Fabulous pictures of the heron and mergansers!
Well done. I'd love to get some merganser photos!
Oh it is amazing that you are able to catch such great shots of these birds. I really liked the Heron and the mergansers. I am curious as to why you are seeing them in winter. This year I have seen more birds that I would have thought would be gone for winter. It has been dry here but it is still strange. I'll look forward to more of these.
Blessings and hugs!
Thats a nice litle park, don't you just love it when you happen upon neat spots like this?--we sure do! Fun to watch those birds as they go about their life. Have your birds started returning home yet?
Hello Debbie!:) What a nice discovery,...I love it when this happens too. Yes, it looks like the birds are overwintering in the park. The Heron is a very fine looking fellow, and seems well fed. The Red Breasted Mergansers are a pretty duck, that I would love to encounter on our adventures. Looking forward to seeing more pictures.:)
Precioso lugar. el lago está con mucha vida. La garza es muy hermosa Debbie.
Te deseo un buen domingo.
Besos.
What a great find. Love the heron and you sure got some good shots!
Fabulous pictures of the mergansers -- I've only seen those guys a couple of times -- they are such great photo subjects (worthy of your talents!) As is the poor GBH, which apparently forgot to fly down to Florida this year!
What a nice park! I loved every single picture. Point Pleasant like Mothman?
I can't wait to see more.
Great photos! Love these incredible creatures, Debbie! Thanks for sharing!
