Well, not too far. Just tiny images.

After Easton, we went on to Hurlock as did the Saunders. Lots of 
shorebirds, a couple of Least Terns, and many Bank Swallows were seen 
there.

Then we (the Kirschbaums) went on to Elliot Island (Royal Tern, Willet, 
Ring-billed Gull), and ended the day at Ridgely, which had lots of 
yellowlegs and peeps (Least and Semipalmated Sandpipers).
