Tree Swallows at Chesapeake Bay Environmental Center.

I took a chance on Sandy Point again this morning, and got some decent images. There were a few more birds than usual, but still not a lot.

Terrapin was still slow, but I did find a few birds and a snake skin.

CBEC was an improvement. I spent some time with the Tree Swallows, then circled the lake. Wading birds are still in short supply, but things are improving.
