Greetings From Delaware

Greetings from Delaware. One of the few states I haven’t been in yet. I’m here just for a few weeks on my way back to Pennsylvania for my niece’s wedding.

The Junction and Breakwater Trail is in a park within walking distance from my camping spot, so I spent the afternoon walking around.

Some photos.

Wild Strawberries. Yum.

Empty mantis egg case. I looked around but didn’t find any of the younglings.

​

Snails under a log

​

There were a couple of Turkey Vultures on the ground poking at something, but I couldn’t see what

Another one joins the buffet

Bluebird

Groundhog in a nearby field

​

I surprised the heck out of this poor Raccoon

​

Woo-hoo! My lucky snakey streak continues. This is an Eastern Worm Snake. Not especially rare, but not often seen because they spend nearly all their time underground. I happened to find this little fellow under a log.
