James Clayton Sattel’s RI Summer: Birds of Aquidneck
Saturday, June 16, 2012
Photographer James Clayton Sattel is passionate about Rhode Island, particularly those shores, crags, and vistas of his home island: Aquidneck. GoLocalProv is delighted to be collaborating with Jim this summer on curated sets of his images that capture coastal life so vividly.
This week's gallery: the many colorful shorebirds that populate our coastlines. According to the RI Audubon Society, Rhode Island' long and varied coastline provides excellent birding opportunities throughout the year. Each season offers its own species: songbirds and shorebirds that migrate up the coast in spring, wading birds and terns that nest here in summer, hawks and swallows that funnel down the shore in fall, and waterfowl that spend winters here.
