I said I was going to drive! A day at the Beach
What I like about living on the water is the sound of the waves hitting the sand, the site and scent of salt water, spending time with my children and grandchildren on the beach, fishing, tubeing, and eating crabs. It's all about enjoying and embracing the simple things in life. Everything I need is right here is Southern Maryland.

Blue Heron's Preserve at Nanjemoy Creek was established in 1978 and has to date more than 3,000 acres surrounding the Creek. It is said to be one of the East Coast largest Preserves. The Blue Heron Preserve's rookery used to have upwards of 2,000 pairs of nesting birds. Now the rookery consists of 12 pairs of birds. Blue Heron's prefer Virginia pines, due to the natural cycle and Hurricane Isabel, it will be 20 to 30 years before the trees regenerate and the large number of birds to return.
The preserve not only has the Great blue heron's, it protects 48 tree species, 86 wildflowers and numerous other species. The heron faces many challenges such as loss of nesting sites and the deterioration of water quality and wetland habitat, this is according to information from the U.S.Fish and Wildlife Service's Chesapeake Bay Field Office,
The East Coast's largest wading bird is often four feet tall, and has a wing span of up to six feet, you will often see these birds in the creeks standing very still in shallow water waiting patiently for the fish to swim by. They will stay here all winter if the water doesn't freeze; if they can get food they won't migrate. To learn more about these beautiful and dignified birds you can visit the Nanjemoy Creek Preserve.

GARDENS FOR THE BIRDS!
Birds require food, shelter and water to survive, most back yards are visited by at lease a few birds, but they are more likely to frequent places that provide all three requirements rather then just one.
Food: Finches are seed eaters, mockingbirds perfer berries, wrens and woodpeckers eat mostly insects, of course the beautiful and fast hummingbird drinks nectar. They love mimosa blossoms.
You can grow a wide range of plants, perennials such as purple coneflower, scarlet sage and asters. Some annuals are salvia, fuchsias, cosmos and sunflowers. Of course if you have dogwoods, hollies, pine and oak trees these will not only provide food but shelter. You can make your landscape a huge bird feeder, depending on what you grow.
Birds appreciate fresh, clean water as much as we do, change the water frequently to keep it inviting. A traditional pedestal birdbath is inexpensive and can be set up in a few minutes. If you follow these easy steps you will attract birds to your garden in greater numbers or wider variety.
