Mallard at Sandy Point.

Another really insipid sunrise was relieved by a Mallard feeding in the shallows.  The lighting is sort of interesting.

Terrapin was  nearly barren. No warblers at all, and the high water seems to be keeping the wading birds away.

I’m going to call the Bullfrog “Old Faithful” as he appears regularly in the same spot.

This Great Blue Heron was the only wading bird in range.
