We had a pair of birds repeatedly carrying food and dropping into the grass. The first BOBOLINK of the season along with 3 BALTIMORE ORIOLES and CLIFF SWALLOW. The WARBLING VIREOS numbers have increased. Years ago I read a "phrase" used to remember their song- "When I sees it , I will seize it, Then I'll squeeze it, Till it squirts!" Make it easy to remember! Came home to find a HUMMINGBIRD on the feeder. Yesterday the PINE SISKINS were back Bonnie Ott (field trip chair) Ellicott city, Howard County Maryland bonnie1163@comcast.net ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
