I have more images from our recent trip to Maryland's Eastern shore and Ocean City MD.  It was good to get away and we were outside walking or driving much of the trip so we could do our social distancing.  

1. The following images are all from the Indian River Inlet in Delaware, not far from the Maryland line. Click on photos for larger viewing.  





2. The Red-throated Loon is similar to the Common Loon but has white in front of their eyes.




3. The Long-tailed Ducks are beautiful. 




4. Double-crested Cormorants, I was told there was a Great Cormorant hanging out on this tower too. 






5. Female Common Eider with one adult male. The adult male also has the long nose but is white on the back. 




6. Common Eider, male and females. Possible Red-throated Loon second on the right side of the photo. 




7. Sanderlings on the jetty.  






8. Loons and Long-tailed Ducks.



9. Various images from the Indian River Inlet, Delaware. 




Our grandson Wyatt is just over a month old. He is growing quickly and is doing well.  He is loved and so adorable.

 Below the top photo is of our son and our dog Daisy, Daisy was a guardian over our son Brian. Bottom photo is our son's dog Nibbles watching over Wyatt.

Skywatch Ocean City

Linking up with NF Winged   and  Skywatch Friday


I took a lot of photos this past weekend during our getaway to Ocean City, Maryland. 


This is  a Cormorant sky. I had to edit this post after I found out one of my Cormorants is a lifer "The Great Cormorant". It is the one with white feathers around it face and head. Some of my facebook friends noticed the difference on my Cormorants. Thanks to Linda and Arlene!


The bridge at the Indian River inlet and some cool cloud formations.


I am pretty sure this is a Red-breasted Merganser. The lighting was not the greatest and with the tide changing and the waves it was hard focusing on this bird.


Surfers catching the waves. Love all the blues, the water and the pretty blue sky. It was a great weekend.


After dinner at the Crabcake Factory which was delicious by the way, we watched the sunset over the bay.

The sunset and a few ducks hanging out on the bay. Zooming in I saw that the ducks were Buffleheads.


I love the colors and the pretty reflection on the water. I hope you enjoyed my Ocean City skies and birds.
