This morning (over my Ellicott city, Howard county house) I counted
12,300 Canada Geese flying north. It was a sight to behold! The main V's
came over between 6:45 - 7:30 with some straggling through until 9:00.
	In the midst of these were 2 SNOW GEESE! A yard lifer for me (#166).
Also were four lines of TUNDRA SWANS -93 total Birds). Plenty of
AMERICAN ROBINS 100+,  also 3 migrant FLICKERS.
	A great blue heron also passed by increasing my yard bird list for 1999
to 51.

	p.s. I did have a song sparrow "barking" from the brush at the woods
edge.
