Fri 4/29: South Mtn S.P. (nothing new Weds / Thurs)
Scarlet Tanager
GC Flycatcher - didn't get binocs on them last sat, thought I heard and
today saw for sure. Titmouses seem to make lots of similar sound but after
seeing i can Sat 4/24 is the first audio-observation here.

Thurs 4/28: Mt Briar Wetland, Rorhersville
Grasshopper Sparrow - fallow area beside boardwalk
Common Y-throat (finally...)
E.Meadowlark - my 1st Wash Co obs so far, possibly around earlier

Weds @ C&O Canal, Lock 34 (West of SandyHook)
Green Heron
Warbling Vireo
NRW Swallow (likely arrived earlier but my first sighting there)
Kingfisher (also like there earlier, 1st sighting)
Baltimore Oriole
N. Parula (seen east in F'rick Co, my first obs in Wash Co.)
Possible Am.Redstart but couldn't get in sights...still checking.  Tough to
call by song.
