        A quick, and unofficial note about the Baltimore Harbor Count, held
Saturday, Jan. 3.
        Preliminary species total was about 108, close to high. Count was
bouyed by such finds as 70+ Snow Buntings at Hart-Miller, Lesser
Black-backed Gull, Laughing Gull, Lesser Yellowlegs, Common Snipe, and five
wrens, including Sedge at Sewage Treatment Plant in frag ponds along
railroad tracks near mouth of Bread and Cheese Creek. Not all parties were
in at the tally, so additions are possible.

"Everywhere I go I'm asked if the university stifles writers. My opinion is
that they don't stifle enough of them. There's many a bestseller that could
have been prevented by a good teacher."  Flannery O'Connor
