Swamp Sparrow at Terrapin Nature Park

Great weather today-morning in the 60s, slightly cloudy and calm, quickly warming to the 70s. I shot the sunrise at Sandy Point, then went to Terrapin, where a few sparrows showed up, but not much else. In a real switch, there was hardly anything worth seeing at CBEC, with the exception of a Sharp Shinned Hawk.
