Bombay Hook

We took advantage of the break in the weather and headed south to Slower, Lower DE. The last time we were in Bombay Hook, it was 17 degrees outside and we couldn't do much exploring. I think it was a balmy 60 this time. We got out of our car, after paying our $4 entrance fee, and heard the most amazing noise. It was a loud, raucous, almost deafening sound. We turned in the direction of the noise and saw thousands of white birds. Now being from Northern DE, we were fascinated by these Snow Geese. Apparently to the locals, these birds are as much of a pain as our Canada geese. But, aren't they pretty?




And here is our picnic. It was a bit windy, but a lot of fun.
