I just got back from Delaware a few hours ago, and overall it was a pretty good trip. I did not see the swarms of mating horseshoe crabs I was looking for, but I did see a number of other cool critters. This mangy fox, for instance, came trotting out from behind the dunes right about sunset and appeared to be looking for a few tidbits. My only regret is that I did not have my more powerful flash with me, as most of the fox photos came out a bit blurry. I do like this one, though.
