Wild Delaware

This is the morning that makes getting up well before the crack of dawn worthwhile. There was a touch of fog in the air and it was clear in the night sky overhead. In short, a perfect morning to photograph wildlife. I made it to a brackish pond in Sussex County before sunrise and found the shallow mudflats covered with herons, egrets, ibis and seagulls. At sunrise the light was soft and warm with the wildlife mostly back-lit making the shape of the wading birds stand out against the background. August 7, 2007
