MD Birders - I thought some list members might find this of interest, particularly those MD rarity aficionados. I'll be giving a slide show to the Baltimore Bird Club this coming Tuesday, February 3rd, at 7:30 pm, at Cylburn Mansion in Baltimore on "Rare Birds of Maryland" (really rare to uncommon birds of Maryland). I believe the meeting is open to everyone. To wet your appetite, here's the species that will be covered (all photographed by myself in MD): Red-necked Grebe Western Grebe Northern Fulmar Greater Shearwater Sooty Shearwater Anhinga White Ibis Greater White-fronted Goose Ross' Goose Tufted Duck Common Eider Harlequin Duck Tufted Duck Barrow's Goldeneye Gryfalcon Sandhill Crane Am.
