Hi All Just a short  Note .That today at The Wye Research center near
Queenstown . I saw a Chipping Sparrow nest in a  peach tree At about 5 to
5.5 Feet above the ground . I saw the nest last week with 3 eggs  Now it has
  hatched  young just a few days old.  As an atlas bird it was all ready
confrimed in this block. But interesting at this late date none the less .
Several Years ago at the Banding Station up at Chino Farms in northern Queen
Annes Co . They banded  a young Chippie fresh out of the  nest in late Sept
. Exact date i woild have to look Up.                                  Happy
Birding      Danny Poet     Queenstown  MD
