Hi Everyone,
Got up early Monday to go on the boat trip to Poplar Island which was
planned a couple weeks earlier. After picking up Mom we attempted to set my
clock in the car the hour forward . When we got to the boarding area and the
boat was pulling off at just 9:20 i couldnt believe it. When i got back to my
car i thought id check the time on the cell phone and find a 10 minute
difference .This car is new for me and one of the buttons on the clock was
labeled with an R ? Maybe next time . We then birded Tilghmans Island and
surrounding areas. And also did run into the birders who went on the boat trip
at Pickering Creek as they were heading back from the boat trip . We still got
a few good ducks and had a great day!
On the way down stopped and took photos of the flock of 22 Wild Turkey
along St. Michaels road.
