I went back to Calvert Cliffs State Park and met Graeme around 9:00 AM. The weather was nearly perfect;slightly overcast in the low 80s, and warmed up as we progressed. The plan was to walk the Orange trail, but we missed a turn somewhere walked a couple of service roads that led us back to the Red trail. It was just as well, as birding was slow, but not completely unproductive. I missed a good shot of a Common Yellowthroat, and several small birds that wouldn’t stay still long enough.

Graeme fiddles with his camera.

Me, on the beach.

This turtle was sunning himself in the marsh.

A better shot of one of the many dragonflies that hang around the park.

These ladies were enjoying a leisurely horseback ride through the park.

I’m calling this a Willow Flycatcher, but I could be wrong as there are many similar flycatchers.

This is the best shot of several, but it’s my first Summer Tanager, so it will have to do.
