I had a great birding day even though it was a work day. Took an extended lunch and went over to Dutch Gap and then went back after work as well. Lots of ring necked ducks and coots. Also some shovelers, mallards, several osprey, and a pair of bald eagles. A gorgeous evening sunset and eagle pair made for some nice pictures.

Also, at the bridge off route 10 going into Hopewell, behind the hotel, were two different pairs of eagles. An immature pair at lunch time and an older pair after work.
I wrote up a rather lengthy recap of my day if you are interested. It is at: https://www.facebook.com/notes/barbara-houston/a-photo-day-to-remember/10150748030382932

I will get pics posted later this week.
