Hi all this afternoon I went for a drive in QA county and Caroline co
for shorebirds not much around except yellowlegs. In Caroline I came
across
1 Wild Turkey in a wheat field East Cherry Lane only
its head visable
1 American Kestrel East Cherry Lane
1 Harrier at East Cherry Lane hunting
1 Field Sparrow Singing at East Cherry Lane
2 Savannah Sparrow on Marblehead Road near Ridgely
Now for the bit of Bad news . The hayfield on East Cherry Lane near
Cedar Lane that has had the nesting Dickcissels for the last couple of
years is now sprouting 2 perk pipes in the section of hay nearest the
stream and across the street from the hedgerow that the male sits in and
sings. Too Bad we have to pave over or sprout houses over most of the
interesting habitats and natural areas.
Happy Birding
