On February 7th, 2003 (sorry for = the late post...blah blah blah) I saw a group of male Red-winged = blackbirds that had staked out some good perches in a storm water = management pond in northern Anne Arundel County off of Solley Road. = They were singing and displaying away. I thought to myself, wow they = are getting a head-start on things, but remembered that well it is = Februray and that they usually start about this time.
