Scenes from the Great Salt Pond

When running errands in Philipsburg, I almost always take a walk by the Great Salt Pond to see who’s hanging out there. These photos are from Monday, and as usual there are plenty of birds there, particularly migrants foraging along the shore. Also, of course, plenty of trash (snowy egret disapproves!), waters of unnatural color and dead fish. It is amazing to see how resilient wildlife is in the face of so much environmental degradation.
