Park, Queen Anne's Co. 9/8 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi Folks! Like Matt Hafner reported for Bayside Campground on Assateague, there was essentially no dawn flight of songbirds at Terrapin Pt. Park. I walked most of the trails between 6 AM and 10 AM and found the following: Double-crested Cormorant 20 Great Blue Heron 4 Great Egret 3 Snowy Egret 12 Green Heron 6 Mute Swan 1 Canada Goose 2 Wood Duck 6 Mallard 12 Osprey 2 Northern Bobwhite 2 Killdeer 1 Laughing Gull 8 Ring-billed Gull 4 Royal Tern 6 Forster's Tern 2 Rock Dove 20 Mourning Dove 2 Great Horned Owl 1 Chimney Swift 14 Ruby-throated Hummingbird 1 Red-bellied Woodpecker 1 Downy Woodpecker 2 Hairy Woodpecker 1 Yellow-shafted Flicker 1 Eastern Wood-Pewee 1 Traill's Flycatcher 1 [maybe an Alder, but it did not call] White-eyed Vireo 3 Philadelphia Vireo 1 Red-eyed Vireo 4 Blue Jay 4 Fish Crow 12 Tree Swallow 1 Carolina Chickadee 10 Carolina Wren 11 House Wren 6 Blue-gray Gnatcatcher 8 American Robin 65 Gray Catbird 22 Northern Mockingbird 14 Brown Thrasher 3 European Starling 100+ Cedar Waxwing 14 Yellow Warbler 3 Chestnut-sided Warbler 1 Magnolia Warbler 9 Black-and-white Warbler 3 American Redstart 8 Ovenbird 1 Common Yellowthroat 17 Eastern Towhee 3 Northern Cardinal 10 Blue Grosbeak 2 Bobolink 2 Red-winged Blackbird 200+ Orchard Oriole 2 American Goldfinch 6 After Terrapin Pt.
