Canvasback at Thomas Point

The ducks seem to be slowly trickling into the bay. I saw a few Canvasbacks and Scaup today, which is a good sign.

It was so cloudy this morning that I skipped the sunrise and went straight to Thomas Point. There wasn’t much there, so I stopped at a friend’s house on Thomas Point Road, where the ducks and swans often gather to be fed. There weren’t as many as in previous years, but I expect that to change soon.
