Today I took the morning off and went down to to Allen's Fresh and Cobb Neck
to Rock Point, Banks Odee Road (BO Rd.), and Morgantown Road looking for
migrants. All in Charles County. Not too much activity but better than
working. Highlights were a nice kettlle of about 20 Black Vultures near
Newburg, two Bald Eagles at Allen's Fresh (AF), five American Kestrels on
the wires at the Bowling Farm, two Wood Ducks on Swann Point Road (SP Rd.),
about 200 Great Black-backed Gulls between Morgantown and Cobb Island, three
Caspian Terns at Morgantown, two Belted Kingfishers at AF, two at SP Rd.,
five Red-breasted Nuthatches on SP Rd., and an Acadian Flycatcher on BO Rd.
The warbler list is thin. Four Magnolia's along SP Rd., a very fresh male
Yellow-throated at Rock Point at the Catholic Church parking lot, Pines
several places, two Black and White on SP. Rd., and American Redstarts
several location. Savannah sparrows are in at AF. Hornlarks are also in
the fields.
On Monday, September 12 I had a Golden-winged Warbler at the abandoned
sewage treatment plant in Bryan's Road,( a town not a street) MD.
I have a new E-mail address at home which is where I am writing this report.
The address is gmjett@erols.com. I would appreciate any good bird reports.
If I find any exceptional birds worth a report, I will post them. Just
wanted to make contact.
Cheers.
