The pilings where the Brown Booby has been seen the last few days is actually
right on the boundary of Fort Story and First Landing State Park. Those
pilings can be seen toward the east from the beach and campground section of
the park. There is a fee for using that section of the park, parking is
limited, and a walk to the east to view the pilings is required. But it is a
public area and is an alternative to accessing the Fort. I haven't tried
looking for the booby via the park. If I do, I'll report what I find. If
someone else gives it a try, I hope they'll post their resulrs.
Cheers,
Bob
