Oxbow Lake, Anne Arundel, US-MD
May 15, 2013 9:45 AM - 1:15 PM
Protocol: Traveling
1.0 mile(s)
Comments: Jay Sheppard and I birded the Little Patuxent River floodplain
portion of the Little Patuxent Oxbow Lake Nature Preserve today and eventually
made it back/up to Big Pool Bluff. The warbler sweet spot (floodplain close to
river) proved productive again this year. Evidence of River Otter examined.
Found a Wild Turkey feather. Beaver have successfully re-built the secondary
dam.
