Photo Study Of Some Birds At Bombay Hook NWR, Smyrna, Delaware, February 23rd, 2011

    We went to Bombay Hook NWR yesterday and while there were lots of birds they somehow managed for the most part to keep the sun behind themselves thereby making
    it difficult if not impossible for photography. Nevertheless, we still got a few decent shots.
