Baynard Cove Homes For Sale 

Beautiful homes in this popular neighborhood are upscale with exotic entryways, double wooden doors, and lush courtyards and decks surrounded by unique pools. Some houses boast well-appointed kitchens, large dining rooms, wet bars, and high-ceilinged rooms. The marsh view is unbelievable with evening sunsets, and docks offer residents and guests a relaxing place for crabbing. The most common edible crab is the Blue Crab, which is actually mostly green, except for the legs. Blue Crabs can be caught in tidal lagoons. Female crabs have prominent red tips on their claws (“the girls paint their fingernails”), while males have little red. You can also tell one from the other by turning them upside down and observing their “apron.” The male has an apron shaped like the Washington Monument, the female like the Capitol Dome. And don’t forget the lovely flora and fauna. Plants, such as Watershield, Fragrant water lily, and Floating hearts, are typically found in marsh areas. Egrets are birds found more often in lagoons and marshes than on the beach. These are the large, pure white, long legged birds with a very long skinny neck. The Great White Egret is the larger one, distinguished by a yellow beak. The smaller Snowy Egret has a black beak. During nesting season both these birds display beautiful, long, delicate plumes. Huge grayish blue birds similar to Egrets and Great Blue Herons, they, also, can be seen in lagoons and marshes, but they do visit the beach at dusk and often remain until nightfall.
