Yesterday I posted some of the details of my recent trip to Pettigrew State Park and the Pungo Unit of Pocosin Lakes National Wildlife Refuge. Here are a few more images from that experience:
Forster’s Tern coming in for a landing (click photos to enlarge)
Vines on tree trunk
Mantis on building before the deep freeze
Large Black Bear coming out of woods
Autumn leaves in roadside canal
Bald Cypress with fall color
And a short video of Tundra Swans resting on Pungo Lake…

I’m a sucker for fall colors!
Me too, Paul, and I was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful the cypress trees still are down that way.
