Vilano to The Ancient City Paddle

By Theo Helms

Todays paddle from the Vilano boat ramp to the Ancient City gave me a chance to get a few good photos of a Great Blue Heron, Snowy Egret, an Osprey, and a Dolphin which surfaced only 30 yards away from our rest stop on Yeungling Island. 

By the way, the Snowy Egret was hiding from me until I paddled around to the other side of the grass he was in, and then I got a good photo… but also noticed an empty plastic bottle…which I picked up for the trash later. Mike and I both picked up beer cans which had floated onto Yeungling Island. We always endeavor to do our small part to clean up the launches, pullouts, and waterways we paddle.

Also, I got some good photos of our newest paddler, Matt Hablitzel, who joined us for the first time. He’s a good paddler and will be a great addition to our group!
