Hi, I saw a post on the Pennsylvania birds list this morning about FIVE recent Northern Shrike reports (two yesterday) from a single county: Bucks, north of Philadelphia. The number involved could be two, three, four, or five. Hopefully some (more) of them will come further south shortly. I have lost count but I think the number of Northern Shrike *reports* on that list has topped 15.... So let's find some in Maryland (and Delaware and Virginia and ......)
