Foxes are active at night so when I found this one just before sunset two nights ago its day was just getting started.

Gray on Gray
Filed Under Fall 2007
We have had and abundance of gray weather over the past few weeks and I have been hard pressed to find a subject to photograph. Or maybe I just wasn’t trying hard enough. So, today I looked little harder and found some beauty in this cold, muddy creek. A rich palette of shades of gray with light, shadow, forms, shapes textures and patterns to please the ey…yeah, right. Well, this is Lewes, DE in the winter.

Catching a Look
Filed Under Fall 2007
I wonder if this Oyster Catcher sneaks a peek at itself in the water as it flies. I found this one a few mornings ago just after a very still sunrise.

Red-winged Greeting the Day
Filed Under Fall 2007
After what seems like weeks of steady rain we now have a nice run of sunny days here in Delaware. I could not resist stopping by the marsh on my way into my office this morning. I was happy to find this Red-winged Blackbird happily greeting the day as well.

The Shallows at Sunset
Filed Under Fall 2007
I went to Cape Henlopen State Park tonight searching for a late afternoon/sunset photograph. The East End Light usually provides an interesting setting at this time of the day, but tonight the added element of men and boys with a seine net working the shallows was the perfect finish to the day. Thank you to them.

Faces Every Mother Can Love
Filed Under Fall 2007
Last night I posted a photograph of a Turkey Vulture with a very unappealing face. Shortly after taking the picture of the vulture I shot these sunflowers that have far more visual appeal.

A Face Only a Mother Could Love
Filed Under Fall 2007, Vultures
Turkey Vultures are natural cleaner-uppers. They consume anything dead they find. This specialized work is made much easier when there are no feathers to get in the way when they stick their heads into a carcass.

Willet Get(s) a Crab
Filed Under Fall 2007
While many shorebirds fed on Horseshoe Crab eggs tonight, this Willet found a small crab for a little dietary variety. A Rusty Blackbird looks on with envy, perhaps.
