I spent about an hour at Gilbert Run Park (e. Charles County) this morning
with no warbler activity at all and little non-warbler activity. I did get my
first Ruby-crowned Kinglet of the season. And a pair of Blue Grosbeak were
showing nesting behavior...both parents were very agitated at my spishing and
the female held food in her beak and then headed for a thicket. Anyone know
the latest date for Blue Grosbeak fledging?
