Hi all!

Sorry this post is late; I tried to forward the message to the group from my yahoo account yesterday, but for some reason was unsuccessful. I manned the Hawk watch at Turkey Point yesterday with my husband, and had a good #-48- of RED SHOULDERED HAWKS; thought it was a signficant # to what it looks like other hawk watches had. Also had a late adult male BLACK THROATED BLUE WARBLER, who alerted me with his consistent chipping, and a late BLUE-GRAY GNATCATCHER, and 4 TREE SWALLOWS. As Pat Valdata stated on Fri., hundreds of ROBINS. Odd that I didn't have one Blue Jay, which dominated the point just several weeks ago. After lunch, I headed down to Conowingo Lake, and was entertained by the 3 continuing RED PHALAROPES. No luck with the Franklin's Gull, either there or at Fisherman's Park.
