With Summer ending and Fall arriving very soon, I thought I would take a ride to Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge in Virginia Beach and walk the trails and the beach. Back Bay is one of my favorite places to visit. It is located at the end of Sandbrige, Virginia, near the North Carolina border. In past trips I have been able to photograph all types of wildlife and I was hoping for the same this visit.

It was a beautiful day for being outside surrounded by natures beauty. This time of year there were very few people visiting, which was fine by me. It was very quiet and peaceful. Although I didn’t see any of the wildlife I usually see, you can guess by the title of this post what I did see and photograph.

Before I entered the refuge I stopped at my favorite place to grab a bite, Sandbridge Seaside Market. As the review says, they have a great deli and fresh donuts. After lunch I headed to the refuge. At the gate, the gentlemen taking admission fees sold me a seniors discount card for all National Parks and Refuges. It will save me a lot of money over time as I love visiting National Parks.

Anyway, here are some of the photos I took. I hope you enjoy them. God Bless.
