Douglas Bridge George Jett Tree, Field and Fox Sparrows 1/28 Anacostia River Park Greg Gough (he reported separately) and of course...the Tufted Duck 1/29 Washington Marina Joe Halpin, et. al. This put DC at 78 species plus one possible new official species, or 25.2% of the official list. For MD, the following were added: 1/22 Red-headed WP M. Bowen and Les Eastman Stafford Rd, Harford Co 1/23 Eurasian Wigeon Chris Barnard Lake Frank 1/29 Eared Grebe Charlie Vaughn OC Inlet 1/29 Red Knot Greg Miller OC Inlet 1/29 Greater White-fronted Goose Kyle Rambo Park Hall 1/29 Glaucous Gull Rick Blom Conowingo Dam The MD comp list now contains 45.8% of the official list....187 species, plus one possible new species. Wow, who would believe that nearly 50% of MD's birds can be seen in the first month of the year! Congrat all.
