Catbird at Terrapin Nature Park.

The gray, dreary weather returned this morning. It was foggy when I left, but I had hopes the Sun would clear things up.  It took far too long.

I’ve often wondered how gray, wet days affect the birds, and I’m becoming convinced it delays the start of their day. It was really slow this morning.

I did manage a few images, but nothing inspiring. Better luck tomorrow?
