Had a chance to get out Thursday to Nickerson. The skimmers hatched out a load of eggs, little chicks all over the place and egg shells too. Was fun watching the little guys getting out from under Mommy to look around and get a fish from Dad or visa verse.
I walked to the shore and caught this guy preening and shaking around.
