Hey everyone,
Yesterday Tom Feild, John Hubbel, Dan Small, and myself spent most of
the day birding in Wicomico and Somerset Counties. We started at
Nutters Neck in Wicomico where we walked the fields searching for
sparrows. All the common sparrows were in abundance along with large
mixed finch flock that consisted of mostly American Goldfinches and
Pine Siskins. A couple Purple Finches and House Finches were also
observed. We continued down to Somerset County where we searched
Vessey's Orchard for anything unusual. At Vessey's we found large
concentrations of Swamp and Savannah Sparrows in the fields along with
a single White-crowned Sparrow. Palm Warblers, American Pipits, and
Horned Larks were also observed. On Deal Island we scoured the field
areas at the Dove Hunting area just north of Wenona but found nothing
of interest other than a Magnolia Warbler.
