I spent three hours at the Bosley Conservancy near Edgewood, Harford County, Maryland on Saturday, October 17. I had not been there before and it is a fine spot. Highlights included 2 Virginia Rails, 1 Marsh Wren, I Cooper's Hawk, 3 Eastern Phoebes, 60+ Yellow-rumped (Myrtle) Warblers, 1 Northern Parula, 1 Cape May Warbler, 2 Common Yellowthroats, and 1 CONNECTICUT WARBLER (my 278th bird in Harford County).
