Black Ducks at Terrapin Nature Park.

Why are Winter sunrises better than other seasons? I don;’t know, but it seems to be true. Not great today, but not bad.

I went back to the Eastern Shore in hopes of seeing some improvement, but it was not to be. Terrapin had little variety, and CBEC had many ducks too distant for good photos.
