Today my wife and I kayaked the lower third of the Carmans River (sunrise
highway South to Great South Bay and back).  It was relatively quiet - no
bald eagles (target species) but we were pleased to find a Red-Breasted
Merganser pair (both molting) and three glossy Ibis.  The marshes bordering
the river were filled with Marsh Wrens as well.

Other notes: At least three ative Osprey nests (all on the west side of the
river) and a very large Snapping Turtle
