Shelley Lake

The Wake Audubon group that went to Shelley Lake last week saw Cedar Waxwings and Solitary Sandpipers, two birds that I needed for my life list.  I went there today and did indeed see the Sandpiper.

The Orchard Orioles were back in the same tree as last spring and I did get a little clearer shot of the male this time. Why is the sky always white when I go to Shelley Lake?  Someday I will actually be in an orchard and will get a beautiful photograph of an Orchard Oriole with a bright sunny blue sky!
