Rejects from the 8 a.m. blog

Had fun helping David lead a tour out to TM Goodwin/Stick Marsh this morning. Some of these pictures are better that what I used for the 8:00 a.m. blog, but somedays I go with stuff that I have a better rhyme for. Today was one of those days.  Enjoy the rest of the pix here, as always, click to enlarge.
