Here's a Great Blue Heron with a WWII tower. I feel like this is a very Delaware photo, and I love it.

  • Did you know that the Delaware Bay is the largest spawning area in the WORLD for horseshoe crabs? It's one of my favorite things about living in Delaware. Every May/June, thousands of horseshoe crabs lay their eggs on the shores of the Delaware Bay. It's really amazing. Since it's not horseshoe crab season yet, here are a few horseshoe crab fun facts: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Horseshoe crabs aren't actually crabs! They are more closely related to arachnids like spiders.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They are often called "living fossils" because they have remained evolutionarily unchanged for ~450 million years.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Horseshoe crabs are completely harmless. Some people thing the tails will sting you, but they won't! Horseshoe crabs use their tails to steer and flip themselves over. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you seen a horseshoe crab before? If you live in Delaware, where is your favorite horseshoe crab viewing place? If you arent from Delaware, where have you seen them? Tell me in the comments!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • See the rainbow in the water? If you hike the Pinelands Trail at Cape Henlopen State Park, you may see lots of little rainbows in the pools along the trail. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
According to @capehenlopenstatepark, the rainbows on the water are created because bacteria in the water consume dead plants and then release tiny amounts of natural oil. The oil forms a harmless film on the water's surface, which then refracts the light and created a rainbow to our eyes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Cool right? Nature is amazing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • I love moonrises. They're so magical. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Delaware happens to be a great place to watch moonrises because the moon rises in the east, and Delaware is surrounded by water on its eastern edge. Which means that you can easily see the moon rise over the marshes, ocean, or bay from practically anywhere on the coast of the state.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you want to watch a moonrise but you don't leave near an eastern coast, go look for somewhere that is flat with as little obstruction on the horizon as possible. Estern-facing cornfields also work well. :)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • To celebrate the new year, I explored a National Park with my family that I had never been to- Cuyahoga Valley National Park near Cleveland, Ohio. 

I grew up in Ohio, but we’d never visited.  It was a really beautiful park with rock formations and waterfalls along the Cuyahoga River. Ohio continues to pleasantly surprise me.

Here are a few photos from the Ledges Trail and Brandywine Falls.
