Sean,�just minutes after we saw you, we saw the bunting [2:00]. �It was closer to the north group of cannons, right where the grass meets the sea wall.� It was very well hidden and I flushed it just 10 feet in front of me.� Had I not been walking right along the sea wall I wouldn't have seen it.� After I backed off to the sidewalk, it continued feeding, heading south, occasionally going below the wall to the rocks.

Subject: [MDBirding] Snow Bunting - Fort McHenry - No
I just got back from Fort McHenry where I spent my lunch break looking for and not finding the Snow Bunting(s). I was there from 1-2 PM.
There were a couple of leaves on the sea wall that were doing passable impressions of a Snow Bunting, much to my consternation.
Otherwise it was quiet bird-wise. A lone American Wigeon floated out into open water from the channel between the wetland and the sea wall. That duck, a few cormorants, and some of the usual gulls were all I saw. More joggers than birds. Beautiful weather, though.
