Greetings,

While working at the Marina, Fishing and afternoon walks I made a few
interesting, though casual, observations around Cecil County over the last
few days. I have temporarily misplaced my field notes so these remarks are
coming from memory. Consequently I am sure that I will miss something...

Wednesday 4/30:

Chestnut Point Marina (Carpenter's Point, MD);
-House Wren
-Red-breasted Merganser

Charlestown Manor;
-Eastern Kingbird

Elk Neck State Forest;
-Scarlet Tanager
-Blue-gray Gnatcatcher
-Common Yellowthroat
-Yellow-rumped Warbler
-Red-eyed Vireo
-Yellow-throated Vireo

Hances Point (my house);
-Rose-breasted Grosbeak (111th yard bird)
-House Wren
-Red-breasted Merganser

Thursday 5/1:

Susquehanna River/Flats (fishing);
-Red Necked Grebe
-Common Loon (alternate plumage)
-Red-breasted Merganser
-Tree Swallow
-Barn Swallow
-Northern Rough-winged Swallow
-Purple Martin
-Chimney Swift

Elk Neck State Park (campground);
-Red-eyed Vireo (singing)
-Blue-gray Gnatcatcher
-Pine Warbler
-Northern Parula (many)
-Common Yellowthroat (singing)
-Marsh Wren (singing)
-Blue Grosbeak (female)
-Wood Thrush (seen not heard unfortunately)

I think that is it.?.

Good Birding,
