Howdy All!

I met fellow Attu veteran, Kyle Rambo, today for lunch and a little
birding...ok...birding and no lunch. <grin>  Here's a summary:

24 Upland Sandpipers
2 Pectoral Sandpipers
6 Solitary Sandpipers
2 Least Sandpipers
1 Greater Yellowlegs
1 Semipalmated Plover
35 Killdeer
1 Tundra Swan
1 Least Tern
1 Sandwich Tern
1 Black Tern
11 Grasshopper Sparrows
8 Horned Larks
3 Eastern Meadowlarks

Also, there is a Southern Maryland Audubon trip to PAX River this
Saturday.  Meet at 0800 (and bird until 1200) at the commuter Park 'N
Ride lot just south of the intersection of SR235/SR246 (near NAS Gate
#2).  This is the parking lot on the right (Tulagi Place), between
Linda's Cafe and the Lexington Park Library.  Attendees should call
Kyle Rambo to pre-register at (301) 342-3670 or (301) 757-1888.
