This big ol' boy was wandering back from the river through the marshy areas to get back up the hillside after his L O N G session drinking at the river.

This is the view on a late December day of Long Island Sound from the salt marsh at Silver Sands State Park. It's a little bleak but also peaceful. A good place for a long walk on the boardwalk along the shore.

(Circus aeruginosus) This marsh harrier had caught a black headed gull in the middle of a lake but was struggling to lift it. I don't think I'll get this close to a marsh harrier at eye level again! Taken from a photo boat hide in the Danube Delta.

The ever vocal Marsh Wren is a resident and seasonal resident across most of the US and Prairie Canada. They are not hard to find in the reeds of marshes. Sometimes they are more often heard than seen with a clear view. However, with a little patience they can be seen easily.
I have, though, never gotten a particularly good photo of one because they are often perched on reeds too many yards away to get a detailed photo, or they are darting around too quickly.
At this particular marsh in Colorado, MWs were plentiful, although still not easy to shoot until I noticed this guy hanging out on the same few reeds while singing loudly. Just stand, aim, and shoot until something good happens. And hope for the
best :)
“Althaea officinalis, known by its common name marshmallow (or marsh mallow), is a flowering plant in the mallow family that grows in wet, marshy environments.” The marshmallows you roast over the camp fire used to contain the sap from this plant and it is how the sweet confection got its name. Today there is no mallow sap used in marshmallows. All parts of the plant are edible. Some parts are used as herbal remedies for ulcers and respiratory ailments. The root contains a slimy sap that humans aren’t able to digest. When eaten, it passes through the digestive system and leaves behind a soothing coating, which aids in digestive problems. Even today the plant is used for a wide variety of medical ailments. The Romans considered the flowers a delicacy. The plant can grow three to five feet tall and once established reseeds itself every year.
A Marsh Wren singing at Swan Lake, BC yesterday. It was quite a windy day, so I had to wait for the reeds to blow out of the way to capture him.

This snowy egret was seen half-hopping and half-flying over Crissy Field Marsh in San Francisco, while hunting for food.
A view at high tide of the partially submerged trees and barn on Porlock Salt Marsh.
Not a particularly long walk to get to the location and back but a bagful of gear and a half hour of high intensity photography in well over 30°C meant a long cold one was very welcome once we got back to the pub.
Neston Marshes on the River Dee just before sunrise.
Love flying the drone around this area. Nothing to hit and the marsh looks a lot more interesting from above :)
