September 26, 2020:
This past Monday, September 21, 2020, was a beautiful sunny day! I spent it at Pee Dee National Wildlife Refuge, located near Wadesboro, NC, about 65 miles from my home.
My day started off with observing and photographing a Great Blue Heron searching for breakfast at Sullivan Pond, in the soft early morning light.
Enjoy!
Stay safe, and have a great day!
