Lapwing Seekers,

Recent reports on the Lapwing's status are scarce. Therefore, take note of 
this from a posting Thursday afternoon "Maryland Lapwing - no luck" on the 
Virginia birdmail list (accessible via 
http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/VABD.html)

"I tried Wednesday afternoon and this morning for the Lapwing near 
Creagerstown, MD. No luck. A couple from New York may have seen the bird 
briefly around 3 PM Wednesday in the field opposite the Creagerstown 
cemetery, but they weren't positive."

(I don't want to spread pessimism, but having recently driven 1,200 miles 
one-way to not see an Ivory Gull in Nova Scotia, I'm - shall we say - 
sensitive.)
