Barnegat Bay Lighthouse and Wild Fowl

The same day that my wife and I visited Island Beach State Park in New Jersey, we also visited Barnegat Lighthouse State Park on Long Beach Island in New Jersey near evening. The first three photos are different views of the lighthouse. And this lighthouse is tall! The next three photos are bird pictures; the two of the white bird are best viewed in the larger size. Sometime we want to go back and spend more time there. But that day it was too windy and cold and we were getting hungry. :)

Across the inlet is Island Beach State Park
where we were earlier in the day.

Thanks for bringing back some great memories with your pictures.; 5/06/2008 05:20:00 PM
