The Aldino Sod Farm in Harford County is looking really good this year.  The best areas are the north side of 156, just west of the airport and the west side of Carsins Run Rd just south of the house.

Yesterday 8/18 I saw:

Killdeer - 100+
Pectoral - 5
Least Sand - 6
Baird's Sandpiper - 1 juv
Solitary - 1
Great Egret - 1

This location has had Golden Plover and Buff-breasted in the past and this year the fields look good.  I'll be checking them somewhat regularly.
