Curt Brandt and I started the day at the Ocean City Inlet with great views

of Brown Pelicans making passes back and forth in the inlet, Bonaparte's
gulls,

Ruddy Turnstones, Purple Sandpipers etc. Next out to West Ocean City Pond

where we found Canada Geese, Great Blue Herons, Wood Ducks, Tri-colored

Herons etc. Then on to that "other state" North of us which we can't mention

here, to the Dupont Nature Center for Cormorants, Gulls and some great shots

of a Clapper rail with chicks at close range then finished off the day at

Bombay Hook finding American Avocets, Dunlin, Baird's Sandpipers etc.

A great day with great weather on the shore.
