While out looking/listening for nesting owls at dusk last night I noticed several moths and one small bat.  Another sign of spring.
No owls were apparent.

I enjoyed this lovely day walking at Centennial Park and Font Hill Park 
in Howard County.  Saw a few spring fauna:

2 Buffleheads at Centennial
~6 Fox Sparrows at Font Hill (in a group of ~100 Juncos, White-throated 
and Song Sparrows)

1 Questionmark comma butterfly at Font Hill
0 dragonflies at either location, alas!  Too soon.

And one "winter" bird -- a Red-breasted Nuthatch at Font Hill.
