Howdy All!

Just got off the airfield here at the Patuxent River Navy Base ("Pax"
in local lingo) with Kyle Rambo (9/1/99 - 5pm).  We had a small group
of 6 Buff-breasted Sandpiers up close and personal.  Drop-dead, killer
views right next to our truck!  Looked like 5 adults and one juvenile. 
They were the best views of Buffies I've ever had.  Hope they stick
around for a while.

Birds at lunch today (12:45-1:00pm) included Cape May Warbler(1), Am
Redstart(2), Magnolia Warbler(2), Blue-gray Gnatcatcher(2), E
Wood-pewee(2), E Kingbird(3), N Flicker(3), Am Robin(2), E Bluebird(1),
Red-eyed Vireo(8), House Finch(1), Am Goldfinch(3), E Starling(100+),
Mourning Dove(12), Downy Woodpecker(1), Tufted Titmouse(1).
