Hi all. Yesterday Maurice Barnhill and I took a brief excursion down to the Delaware Bay. Despite the cloudy weather, it was highly entertaining watching all the Pipers doing what they have been doing for Thousands upon thousands years.
I took my 15 year old son down today. Great Light for me for photography and he really wanted to see the spectacle of spring time on the Delaware Bay and being this is the only time I would have for a while to get down there, we didn't want to miss it.
I was at the North end of Slaughter Beach for about an hour, my son hung in there for about 30 minutes before he got board and went back to the truck.
I did manage to find 2 Knots with Leg bands. May be there are recent Delaware bandings, Maybe not. If anyone knows, pass the info on please.
Follow the links below, the top on is the leg bands and the bottom is just some photographs I took today.
