The Merlin that was seen a week and a half ago has returned and was seen in its usual spot above the VA post office. a total of 8 Red-necked Grebes were seen. and a lone Red Head made an appearance in with about 50 canvasbacks. Waterfowl species were numurous as 17 species were noted along with D.C. Cormorant & RNGR. No Ospreys yet! One other note of interest was that a coworker called from his home and said that a small hawk had just hit his livingroom window and was quite dead. i went over and he had a mature Sharp-shinned Hawk (very dead). Poor thing, what an awesome bird.... ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
