Elizabeth River

Elizabeth River
( 40.67718, -74.22651 )

The Elizabeth River is highly urbanized and difficult to access, hence the purple markers on the map.

I've marked the three starting and ending points in the videos below, but I would strongly recommend against all of them. The lower part of the Elizabeth River is bulkheaded for much of its length, more of a storm drain than a river, and the Arthur Kill looks filthy and a little dangerous. The videos are interesting, but I don't ever want to go there myself. The upper reaches of the Elizabeth River might be nice, although I don't see any obvious access points, and there are a number of weirs that could be a problem.

Ospreys & Eagles

Osprey

Osprey - note the under-wing patterning, see Bald Eagle below

Ospreys, or "Fish Hawks", are surprisingly common, and can be found just about anywhere. You'll typically see them flying high over the water from a tree on one side to a tree on the other, occasionally diving down on some unlucky fish. Ospreys are usually seen alone, but mating pairs stay together, and I think young siblings stay together for a while as well. Ospreys are one of the biggest birds that you are likely to see. A single species has an almost worldwide distribution - pretty much everywhere except Australia.
