finally a sunrise..

another early morning with lots of clouds so no beach again after 5 days of no sunrises with storms all over .. a drive to the island this Monday morning I stopped along the causeway and waited this one out.. clouds today were moving from inland to the ocean.. a few birds along the marsh.. some birds at the bird-feeders right outside our kitchen window-- not for great pics when taking thru glass but pics just the same of 'our usual suspects and regulars'

before sunrise
