Nancy and I spent the weekend in western Maryland birding, hiking, and 
relaxing. In addition to the species listed below, we also spotted three 
groups of Maryland birders, including a Carroll and Howard County group 
led by Bob Ringler, who will no doubt report many species in addition to 
the 83 listed below.
