This large bird was probably nesting a few hundred feet from this beach in the Rockport Rookery. I met these birds after my third day of exploration of Aransas NWR aboard the "Skimmer". There was still time left in the day for explorations. I found a nice place to park next to Little Bay and photograph local resident birds.
