A Ruddy Turnstone climbs a mussle covered granite rock on a jetty at Cape Henlopen State Park this afternoon.The “unofficial” tally of bird species seen in Delaware this year stands at 177 today. And today I photographed five species - Ruddy Turnstone, Killdeer, Northern Flicker, Mourning Dove and a Mallard - so that leaves 172 species. Over the past six months I have photographed many other species for Wild Delaware and I have six months of shooting to go. But it is clear that I will be very lucky to see - much less photograph - even half of the bird life in the state. When you add in the mammals, amphibians, reptiles and other creatures found in Delaware it is easy to see I will have a very busy six months. I hope you will keep watching www.WildDelaware.com to follow the progress of the book. Please feel free to leave comments when you see something you like (or don’t like).
