Yet another superb day. The sunrise at Sandy Point was quite good. I headed right for Terrapin, as the local park is closed on Tuesdays. Friends have seen some good birds on the Eastern Shore recently and I found them as well.
Terrapin was well populated with ducks and a few passerines are trickling in also.
I stopped at Kent Narrows, which continues to be disappointing.
CBEC had hundreds of distant ducks, but I got close enough to a few for some decent images.

I think this is the first Northern Shoveler I’ve seen at Terrapin.

Not a great shot of these Wood Ducks, but I’ll get better ones soon.

Not perfect, but Tree Swallows in flight are tough to get.
