Scherman Hoffman and Great Swamp

Our small group of Linnaean NY birders led by Richard Z tried to stay cool by hugging the shade on Sunday, July 3. The highlight was a Ruby-throated Hummingbird sitting on its tiny golf ball sized nest at Great Swamp in Morris County, New Jersey. The rest of these photographs were made at the New Jersey Audubon Sherman Hoffman Sanctuary.

    Chicken of the Woods looks intriguing. I hope it tastes good

      I haven’t tried it yet. It isn’t right to take something from a sanctuary.

    We have a tick-trefoil, too, but it vines, and has tiny flowers with the same face-like pattern on them. That’s a good-looking Chicken of the Woods, too. Yum! (say some of my friends — not me.)

      I wouldn’t pick it to try in a sanctuary.
