Cloudy days are difficult to work with, but I went to take a look anyway. I wanted to get to the Eastern Shore, but I’m going to wait for perfect skies.
Birds were very scarce, and the few shots I got were ordinary stuff in sub par light.
I spent the last few minutes trying some close ups with my small lens, and got a couple of interesting shots.
Probably a male Eastern Pondhawk.
Eastern Pondhawk Female.

I don’t know what insect laid these eggs. Edit: The experts tell me this is a spittlebug egg sac. Spittlebugs
great job
Isn’t that a carpenter bee?
