Herring Bay, MD just off the Chesapeake Bay; May 10, 2011


Looking east towards the Chesapeake Bay. The buoy is a shoal warning for 2 miles of shallow water. 

Traveled though narrow parts of the Chesapeake today where you could see land on both side.
This side had tall and rugged looking cliffs

The other side of the Bay had clusters of trees and some sandy beaches

We saw several fishing boats pulling nets

This is a busy fishing area. You have to be on the lookout for buoy's with flags.
They are marking a fish net.

Sometimes you have to alter your course to steer clear of the big ships.

Looks like a small work barge, but we weren't sure.
