ospreyers,

thanks for your advice re birding in calvert co.  my 3 free hours from a
social occasion in chesapeake beach somehow got whittled down to 30
minutes (like most of us, I more often have too little than too much time
for birding!)

based on norm's advice I scoped the bay from the north beach boardwalk,
where in the rafts of 000s of greater scaup and 00s of canvasbacks I
found 75-100 redheads.  Perhaps this ain't worth writing home about to you
estuarine types, but around DC I'd never seen more than 2 in a day, and
probably no more than a coupe dozen lifetime, adding up everywhere I've
birded.

thanks again, and hope to have more time next social occasion ...
rob
