Paul Lehman just called to say that about 10 birders saw a CAVE SWALLOW and 
four other swallows at the bridge over the Monocacy River near Lilypons 
Water Gardens.

At about 10:42 am, 5 swallows, (1 Cave, 2 Trees, and 2 unknown swallows) 
made a couple of quick passes along the west side of the river, and then 
continued heading north, upriver.

Yesterday, December 1, one person saw one Cave Swallow around 10 am, but 
that was the only report.  I believe people were at the bridge for much of 
the day.  This bird was heading north/upriver and did not linger.
