Subject: [MDBirding] Common Ravens, Bethesda, November 14


MD birders:

Hard on the heels of Gail and Barry seeing a Common Raven on Randolph
Rd., Montgomery County, and Sarah Anderson hearing one by her home in
Cabin John, I can report that I heard and saw two Ravens about noon
today, Wednesday 11/14, in Cabin John Regional Park, West
Bethesda. I was birding along the power line right of way that runs
perpendicular to Westlake Drive at the time. The Ravens were flying
NE, quite high.

The power company has mown the right of way grasses very short this
year, but in the shrubby hollows and edges not reachable by the
mowers there were lots of sparrows -- basically Song, White-throated
and Field, along with a couple of Towhees (EATO's for those who
prefer them this way.
