Historic Landmark: The Pembroke Herring Run In Memoriam, July 22, 2009

This post may not belong here in consideration that it is not within the theme of the page. However, it was a sojourn on my bicycle, a trip to the Pembroke Herring Run where the memorial is located.

As I have written in America’s Betrayal: Daily there always seems to be an existential reminder of the immorality of war. It is always with me, staring me right in the face: primarily Iraq and Afghanistan, but also Korea and Vietnam.


And, so it is on this day.

The Pembroke Herring Run: A History of the Valley and Fishery

The North River, formed by the junction of Indian Head River and Barker River flows northeasterly through the towns on Marshfield, Scituate, Norwell, Pembroke, and Hanover. The present outlet to Massachusetts Bay was formed during the gale of 1898, 3 miles to the north of the old opening. It is here that the adult alewife begins its journey towards its spawning grounds in Furnace and Oldham Ponds.

Burrage Wildlife Management Area: White Egret/Heron Video

Watched this egret for quite a while. Started shooting my camera when I thought the time was right. He finally caught his prey, which I believe was a frog, but could have been a small catfish.
