First, I wanted to thank my brother Mike for posting the lapwing report. He's a Delaware-based birder, so he was going above and beyond the call of duty by posting this here.
However, as Kevin and Gail suggest, it's rather surprising it was not posted here sooner (by a Maryland birder). When the facebook page was started (over the objections of many here), we were all given assurances it would not compete with this list, and that this list would still be the place to report bird sightings in MD. Those assurances seem to have been flat wrong.
