(That may change if the predictions for more bad weather hold up.) Sharp-shin numbers are growing and Broadwings are coming through. Today, as of 3 p.m. we had over 200 Broadies (I don't have complete numbers for the day yet). Merlins and Osprey are also coming through nicely. 4/19/00 OS 16 BE 1 NH 1 SS 14 RS 1 RT 1 AK 6 ML 1 PG 1 U 1 Total 43 4/20/00 TV 4 OS 15 BE 4 NH 7 SS 54 CH 14 RS 3 BW 6 RT 3 AK 19 ML 1 PG 1 U 3 TOTAL 134 4/21/00 TV 2 OS 5 NH 6 SS 69 CH 6 BW 2 AK 18 ML 1 TOTAL 109 4/22/00 BV 1 OS 19 NH 2 SS 60 CH 3 BW 5 AK 6 ML 2 TOTAL 98 4/23/00 BV 3 TV 12 OS 34 NH 2 SS 154 CH 14 BW 26 RT 1 AK 6 ML 3 TOTAL 255 4/24/00 (Incomplete Numbers) TV 10 OS 18 NH 2 SS 145 CH 12 RS 2 BW 204 AK 4 ML 5 TOTAL 402 SEASON TOTALS BV 226 TV 2959 OS 291 BE 32 NH 110 SS 1090 CH 293 NG 2 RS 239 BW 277 RT 371 GE 1 AK 820 ML 31 PG 2 U 18 TOTAL 6762 HOURS 232.7 Fort Smallwood Park is located on the western shore of Chesapeake Bay at the mouth of the Patapsco River, about 11 miles south of Baltimore, MD.
