A COMMON YELLOWTHROAT was the only warbler seen during the hour-long walk. I suspect a blue streak as being the male Grosbeak. Later I joined Wendy Taparanskus and Jim Peters at Ft. McHenry for the evening walk and tallied 32 species including COMMON YELLOWTHROAT, Black-crowned Night Heron, Snowy Egret, Green Heron, Great-crested Flycatcher, and Eastern Kingbird. The Western Kingbird was found earlier in the day. Jim also reports finding a Seaside Sparrow on Tuesday.
