Silver Bluff Nature Reserve

A week ago we went to the newly opened Audubon property near Aiken, SC, called Silver Bluff. You may remember that I was so excited about seeing the swallow-tailed kites later in the day that I didn't think there had been much of interest at Silver Bluff.

Now that I've looked at my photos, I find that there were some nice things after all. Here are a few.

Here's what all those baby woodstorks we saw a few months ago do now that they are bigger. They hang around in shallow ponds.

These butterflies landed all over us.
