44 +These fiddler crabs were marching en masse across a mud flat.  It was rather hypnotizing.  Even though we didn't see a lot of fauna, we did see some beautiful marsh vistas and flora:

23 23  After the walk, we continued across the bridge and over to Jekyll Island, to the campground.

25 -Per usual, we took a walk, this time over to Driftwood Beach.

92 +The campground has a "bird sanctuary," which is just fancy-talk for feeders and bird baths, but it was well worth visiting, and we finally saw the ever-wary painted bunting, as well as woodpeckers, and the more common doves, finches, and sparrows.[[image:P1370325.jpg]]
