WGMD’s Throwback Thursday Picture of the Day – A stripped down US Navy destroyer, the USS Radford, became part of the DelJerseyland artificial reef on August 10, 2011. Former crew members and some who helped build the vessel were on board the MV Delaware with reporters, DNREC officials and others as we traveled 28 miles offshore to watch the ship become a fishing Mecca. WGMD was along for the ride and we watched for about 4 hours as the final preparations were made for the ship to take on water and sink – once the Radford started to go – it was down in 90 seconds.

WGMD baby barn swallow. Questions for anyone familiar with these birds – this little one was found on the front porch at WGMD Saturday morning – not sure if he was thrown out of the nest or fell out. Obviously looks old enough to fly – the other babies look much smaller – but he’s barely moved all day – maybe a foot from one spot to another. Any idea what’s happening with this baby? In the 5 years or so since these birds adopted our security camera to build their nest – we’ve never seen this happen before. Mama and/or Papa was hanging out all day sitting on the Knox Box or flying in and out with food for those still in the nest. BIRD UPDATE – MONDAY MORNING – still among the living – still hanging on the front porch. If you know anything about our birds – email wgmd@wgmd.com / Click for full view
