Howdy all!
Early morning trip to Calvert Cliffs St Pk. 6:30am-7:45am. Cold.
Breeze from South, 0-5 mph. Sunny.
I spent 20 minutes in my yard on the Pax River (6:00am-6:20am)
before going to the park. Yard birds were included in the following
list.
I've got Spring Fever in a bad way. Several larger groups of
warblers, but still mostly Yellow-rumps. Total 65 species (13 sp of
warblers). Birds with a '*' are new for me for Maryland this year...
