Hi Everyone,

I chased a few birds the past two days with moderate success. 

On Thursday, I traveled to North Vaughn and had great looks at a Gull-billed Tern flying around the pond on the right.  Viewing the fourth street flats from Hoopers, I was able to find a Sandwich Tern among the resting Royal Terns. I looked for a Ruff at several places with no success. I figured if Delaware had for or five at different places, MD should have one.

Today, I tried for the Howard County Dickcissel with no success. Has anyone seen this bird recently? Thanks for great directions, the church is a great viewing spot.

Regards,
