Day trippin' to Harris Neck National Wildlife Refuge

The beauty of this protected habitat doesn't disappoint

A wood stork flies through the air over Woody Pond at Harris Neck. As the only stork species that breeds in the United States, the storks usually nest in large rookeries, some of which can be found at the refuge.

While there are plenty of attractions and activities in Bulloch County, one of the great things about living here are that there are many more that can make for an easy, leisurely day trip. And for anyone interested in nature and wildlife, one of those destinations is little more than an hour away, east on I-16, then south on I-95. I've made that trip several times this past winter and this spring, lugging my camera equipment along, hoping for a few photo opportunities.
