Sandy Point failed me again. There’s a web site that’s supposed to predict sunrise colors, and it’s proving to be worthless. Not a single image.
Terrapin was a disappointment as well, so I left there sooner than usual and went to CBEC. I’d heard there was a Fox showing up recently, and I saw it right away. I found it later as well, but couldn’t get a shot.
The lake was well populated with egrets, herons and a few Ibises, as well as Osprey and sandpipers. A very good morning.
I was lucky to catch this White Tailed Deer before she disappeared.
This Fox looked to be chasing a rabbit.
There were 30-40 Snowy Egrets and several Great Egrets on the lake.
I don’t often see Common Yellowthroat Warblers at CBEC.
A flock of 15-20 Least Sandpipers was foraging around the edge of the lake.
It’s my week for Forster’s Terns.
This Osprey is carrying nesting material very late in the season.
A few Greater Yellowlegs were feeding with the Egrets.
I haven’t seen a Tr-colored Heron at CBEC for two years.
I was just barely able to see this Heron in the phragmite.
2-3 Glossy Ibis were feeding with the Egrets.
A dozen or so Barn Swallows are still hanging out at CBEC.
This Cardinal has found a Praying Mantis.
This Brown Thrasher has a very large bug I don’t recognize.
I love the fox picture. He/she looks quite healthy with a full tail.
