This afternoon, about 3:45 pm I saw an orange Scarlet Tanager at Patuxent Research Refuge North Tract in Anne Arundel County. The bird was vigorously singing along the Wildlife Loop just past the second intersection with the Green Trail. This bird was a brilliant orange with jet black wings, quite a striking sight. Otherwise, my time was limited, usual suspects. Other highlights were two singing Yellow-throated Vireos, a vocal Chat, and a Yellow-billed Cuckoo just below the wierd Tanager. All visitors must check in at the Visitor Contact Station.
