Hi everybody: I just returned home from a full day of birding in Charles and St. Mary's County. I just wanted to get the word out that I found a CLAY-COLORED SPARROW in Indian Creek Natural Resources Management Area this morning. I initially saw the bird at about 9 AM this morning and despite numerous hunters (not hunting) running their dogs through the same vicinity I was able to relocate the bird about 75 minutes later for George Jett, Gwen Brewer and John Hubbell. John also found a Lincoln's Sparrow in the same vicinity (Thanks John). Earlier I also had several White-crowned Sparrows; also saw Field, Song, White-throated and Swamp Sporrows. I also saw a Nashville Warbler and while the others were there we had a Palm Warbler.
Indian Creek is a LARGE area...Attempting to give directions here would not be easy and would have too much of an error to be misled. If anybody is interesting in checking it out tomorrow either call me at my house #...301-330-5490 tonight ...I will answer the phone until the last out of the Cardinals - San Fran. baseball game tonight (wish the NATS were still playing). Tomorrow feel free to call me at work...301-948-1518 or on my cell...301-742-0036.
