A single Eastern Meadowlark flew over Owings Mills Mall without making a sound. At Soldier's Delight a silent PINE WARBLER thrilled me on the Red Trail before a hiker frightened him. I was able to confirm HIS gender moments later. With the Juncos and Chipping Sparrows attempting to distract me; I did not think I would find the warbler. The Eastern Phoebe was on the parking lot of the visitor's center.
