I went to the Eastern Shore yesterday, and struck out completely. A very unusual occurrence. In truth, today wasn’t a lot better. I found a few good birds, but they wouldn’t pose. I had to settle for the usual suspects.
I spent a little time looking for bugs, and found a nice spider.

This Catbird is molting.

This is a juvenile Indigo Bunting, about as plain as a bird gets.

There’s almost always a common Yellowthroat to be found at Governor Bridge.

This Eastern Phoebe may be migrating.

Blue Grosbeaks will be migrating soon.


Today’s bugs.

This (Wolf Spider, I think) is carrying her egg sac.
