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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
