Folks

Gwen and I had good looks at, and I photographed a male Baltimore Oriole off 
Bensville Road, off of Vista View Court in north Charles County, MD 
yesterday.  Thanks to Ray Koehler for bringing the bird to my attention.  A 
very attractive male bird coming into breeding plumage.  A great way to 
start 2005.

We then went up to Black Hills for the illusive Montgomery Co. Eared Grebe. 
Gwen found the bird after much searching, and I got some distant images.  We 
appreciate this bird coming out of it's foxhole for our third attempt at 
Gwen's state Eared Grebe.  We still did not find any of the reported Cave 
Swallows.

happy new year all.

George
