I led a 2-hour bird walk at the National Wildlife Visitor Center (Patuxent Research Refuge) whcih produced some good birds! (damp and overcast)
Highlights...
3 American Wigeons
1 Northern Harrier (male)
1 Yellow-bellied sapsucker
1 Brown creeper
1 sub-adult bald eagle (approx. 4 year old - "dirty" white head, indistinct dark band on white tail
and much mottling on the body).... interacted with a male osprey.
We saw a female wood duck perched about 30 feet up on a snag, next to the parking lot. She flew from snag to snag (poss looking for a cavity).
