I started at Possum Point this morning, and got some decent dawn shots. There were very few birds about, so I headed to Sandy Point to look for the Snowy Owl that’s been reported. No luck with the owl, but I saw a very large number of Cardinals, more than I’ve ever seen in one place. There weren’t many ducks.

Thomas Point had plenty, but most were too far out to ID. The Wood Duck is still hanging out, and a few birds were close enough to capture.

Not a bad morning, but more variety would be nice.

Chesapeake Bay Bridge.

Morning at Possum Point.

This Canvasback was at my friend’s house.

I’m finding more Long Tailed Ducks than in previous years.

Buffleheads are plentiful at this time of year.

This single Wood Duck seems to have been adopted by a flock of Mallards.

There were 10 or more Cardinals in the grass at Sandy Point.

I saw this White Breasted Nuthatch as I was leaving.
