Hey All....just got back from a whirlwind 2.5 day tour of the eastern
shore. It was probably one of the best photo trips I have ever had over
there. I will post pics and the full write up later, but I wanted to
let you know a couple highlights.
- White Ibis at the Oyster landfill and surrounding area - 50+ in the
landfill and they were in many yards along Seaside Road and at the boat
landing area.
- Black Skimmers at Willis Wharf - Off the viewing platform, at least
100-150 of them
- Black Neck Stilts still along the roadway into Chincoteague.
- I did see a few Black Skimmers at Chincoteague, one nesting, the rest
across from parking lot 1.
I have photos of most all of the nesting birds at Chincoteague....if you
are over there soon, there is a nesting OysterCatcher right at the main
parking lot.
More to come!
Barbara
