I hit some of the same spots as Mike Bowen today (too bad I didn't run
into him).  Not much to add except:

1 American Woodcock - inadvertently flushed one while looking at Fox
Sparrows at the Arboretum
1 Great Horned Owl - Arboretum
1 Red-breasted Nuthatch - Arboretum
1 Yellow-rumped Warbler - Kenilworth Park
20-25 Fox Sparrows - the largest single flock I've ever seen, feeding
with White-throats, Songs & Juncos at the Arb.

Otherwise I saw much of same as Mike, except I missed the Meadowlarks.
Last week Rob Hilton, John Hubbell & I had a number of Horned Larks and
a few Am. Pipits flying over Ft. Lincoln and the Kenilworth Aquatic
Gardens.  I didn't hear any today.

Good birding,
