Last night about 11:45 pm, I picked up a great yard bird when 75+ Tundra 
Swans flew over the house.

Other recent observations -

Some waterfowl over past week at Lake Placid (Gaithersburg) in addition 
to ever present Mallards and Canadian Geese include Redheads, American 
Wigeon, Ruddy Ducks, Ringnecks, Greater and Lesser Scaup and an Am. 
Coot.  Only the Coot, Ringnecks and Ruddy Ducks were present yesterday.

On Tuesday, 2/22 I found a Chipping and Fox Sparrow at the Agricultural 
History Park near Derwood.
