The One and Only Outer Banks Big Day

10,000 Birds

We ended with 7 species of mammal, including River Otter, Gray Fox, and Marsh Rabbit, but the highlight may have been a little Canebrake Rattlesnake crossing the road at the Bodie Island lighthouse, a lifer herp for me. A Nelson’s Sparrow peeks out of an Outer Banks marsh. Photo by Nate Swick.
