That's my World.. a Maryland waterfront walk




Being a birder I am always looking for new places to do some birding. The waterfront walk at HavreDeGrace, Md is one of those places.

Ducks and Geese





Great Blue Heron








There is a nice boardwalk to view where the Susquehanna meets the Chesapeake Bay. It also has a few of our favorite restaurants for Maryland crabcakes and seafood.




This HavreDeGrace walk has become one of our favorite walks and part of our world. For more great That's my World photos,please click on my link. Also thanks to the team of Klaus, Sandy, Wren, Fishing Guy,  Louise and Sylvia for hosting.

    Eileen, these are fantastic shots of birds and nature. And I surely do love lighthouses. I'm not so far away from Maryland that we can't visit this lovely waterfront walk! My World Tuesday will be up in a few minutes! :) thanks for commenting at Mellow Yellow Monday!

    I enjoyed this tour of a place I haven't been. I also enjoyed the tour of Glacier, a place I have been but not recently.

    I was really enjoying your post until you mentioned the Maryland crabcakes. Now that is all I'm going to be able to think about. I love seafood. Thanks for a great post. Now I'm really upset the word verification is perch.

    Do you have an official duck shooting season? We have one here, and many of the wild ducks know this and they fly to the parks.
