| | Check the gulls, terns and
cormorants perching on the tops of the remains of the pilings for the docks that once made this area a very active commercial fishing port. Only the footings of the tower that once stood at the end of Caviar Tower Rd. remain. In winter, waterfowl can be seen here in large numbers out on the Delaware Bay. Again, scan the tall trees for perching eagles and don’t forget to look up for soaring eagles.
