Hi Everyone,

I also stopped by Lilypons in the late morning and had a few nice birds,
most of which Bob lists below. Only additions are,

Virginia Rail
Orange-crowned Warbler
Blue-headed Vireo

Most of the activity was near the berm near the Monocacy. Spoke with a few
other birders and a Cape May and BTB  warblers were also seen yesterday.
