Hi Everyone,

This morning (3 May 2013) Eric Lynch and I birded Riley Roberts Rd in the
Deal Island Wildlife Management Area (WMA) in Somerset Co. After Eric had
to leave I stopped in at the Chance Inlet, Messick Rd, and then birded
Green Dumpster Rd in the WMA. Despite the strong chilly wind, the birding
was quite fun. Here are a few of the highlights by location:

*Riley Roberts Rd (including the turnout)*
Gadwall--5
American Wigeon--2
Green-winged Teal--15
Hooded Merganser--2
Green Heron--1
Glossy Ibis--19
Black-necked Stilt--2
Yellow Warbler--1
Marsh Wrens, Common Yellowthroats, and Seaside Sparrows have been singing
along the road for a while now.

*Chance Inlet*
Common Loon--2

*Messick Rd*
Killdeer--an adult with 3 nearby juveniles (still with single breast bands)
near the pond

*Green Dumpster Rd*
Gadwall--2
Blue-winged Teal--2
Hooded Merganser--5
Great Egret--18
Snowy Egret--9
Little Blue Heron--2
Glossy Ibis--9
Black-necked Stilt--2
Semipalmated Sandpiper--1
Least Sandpiper--8
Short-billed Dowitcher--3
Yellow Warbler--1

Have fun,
