Today: Lest we forget the wondrous beauty of Fishers Island that each individual beach here gifts us with….
Chocomount: Although “shifty” during the “off season” – so VERY generous to our families for decades!

Can be quite becoming:
I’m sitting at my desk on this very dreary afternoon.
With camera ever by my side, I was delighted at first glance to observe a small Flicker woodpecker; perhaps share with folks.
But just now a bedraggled Blue heron has joined me!
Very unusual for this type bird to perch in the American Elm here on Silver eel Cove.
Managing to stay its course these windy days.

This eve in bunker grasses; Parade Grounds, Fishers Island.

No black “woolens” on this caterpillar.
It’s nearly 65 degrees today on Island-those folks over at “folklore” might be on to something; like a very mild winter?!

Overflowed and sparkled into Fishers Island Sound this morning while Barred owls slept in.

Want to catch a glimpse of this slender, buoyant raptor?
“No Hurry”!
At least that’s what I’ve learned-patience.
You’ll spy our local Harrier within the Parade Grounds coursing low over South Beach dunes,then a quick soar and swoop around the small marsh pond in meadows behind Movie Theater. Often hunting in evening light between 5&6pm-this snippet shows there are probably two!

And the beach we all share a special love for.
This afternoon, adorned in exquisite Natural splendor.
A crown jewel within Long Island Sound, Fishers Island is surrounded by some of the only remaining Eelgrass meadows-less than 400 acres of healthy critical habitat for fish and shell fish “nurseries”.
“Long. Live. The Queen.”

Stalwart, Fishers Island stands watch this afternoon amidst October’s northerly and westerly gusts and chop.
The “Gem” of both Long Island and Fishers Island Sound. Today, less than 400 acres of Eel grass surround us, supporting healthy marine habitat.
Help preserve and protect our Seagrass meadows!
