Andy,

The best place to find the sort of information you're looking for is 
the seasons reports from back issues of Maryland Birdlife.  I have a 
full set here and I'll try to dig into it some time this weekend and 
see what I can find over the past 10 years of so.  Please be 
patient...I have other projects underway too.  If you can get access 
to a full set of MB yourself, let me know, okay?

Cheers,

P.S.  Thanks for the heads-up on the BIRDCHAT note about the Greater 
Scaup--I'm about 8 or 9 digest behind over there...sigh.
