I&#8217;m visiting the same places almost daily and not finding much interesting. There may just be fewer birds, or I may need a new game plan. I suspect I&#8217;ve lost a step or two, as I feel my longer walks more than usual.<\/p>\n<p>Both Possum Point and Sandy Point have made it hard to get in for sunrise photos, and my few trips there this year haven&#8217;t found much. Likewise for CBEC and Terrapin.<\/p>\n<p>The pond at Jonas Green has been my salvation for the last few weeks. Herons, Ducks and Blackbirds are plentiful and usually will pose at least briefly.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_45539\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
