(Thanks again to Mary Gustafson, for convincing me it really was a Reeve. :-) Also present at Bear Swamp were PECTORAL, LEAST, WESTERN & SEMIPALM. SANDPIPERS, SEMIPALM. PLOVER, G. YELLOWLEGS, and LESSER YELLOWLEGS. At Raymond Pool: STILT, WESTERN, LEAST and SEMIPALM. SANDPIPER, SEMIPALM. PLOVER, WILSON'S PHALAROPE (5), G. YELLOWLEGS, L. YELLOWLEGS, and SB DOWITCHER (caurinus & hendersoni). Some folks saw 2 BLACK-N STILT but I missed them on account of being too busy checkin' out the "hendersonis" and wishing they would magically transform into LB Dowitcher. No luck. Maybe I should have stared at them longer, after a few drinks ofcourse.... Oh yea, almost forgot, 20+ AM. AVOCETS were at Raymond Pool. THere were other kinds of pretty birds as well. Some were big. Some were small. - shireen in Baltimore ========================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ========================================================================= ===========================================================================
