A reported Little Gull along the beach in Del Haven brought a few of us scrambling to the bayshore this afternoon. The tide was out, and the flats stretched brown and soggy towards the receding water, littered with shorebirds and gulls. From the frenetic activity, it was obvious that there was plenty to eat out there. There were plenty of interesting patterns on those flats, as well. And yes, we saw the gull.

Sandy ridges on the flats
A hardened ring of mollusks. Did someone plant them here?
