    I spent 3 hours at McKeldin Area of Patapsco Valley SP in Carroll =
County this morning.  It was the first big warbler day of the season, 10 =
species.  As usual at this time of year the only singing birds were =
vireos and pewees.
    The tally was:

Parula  5
Chestnut-sided  1
Magnolia  2
Black-throated Blue  1 female
Black-throated Green  1
Blackburnian  3
Cerulean  1 male, my latest ever by three days
Black-&-white  2
Ovenbird  1
Canada  1

    Also seen were several Scarlet Tanagers, 1 Gnatcatcher, and one =
Rose-breasted Grosbeak was heard.  Surprisingly there were no Redstarts.

    Later at Soldiers Delight in Baltimore County I saw 2 Red-breasted =
Nuthatches.  The only warbler I saw there was 1 Pine.
