Yesterday I attended a bird walk in the National Arboretum for International Migratory Bird Day. The walk was led by David Sibley. Ellen Paul sent out this list of all the birds recorded. I personally didn't see them all but for the purposes of Maryland-DC record-keeping I've annotated the list with numbers where it might be useful (Bob, you'll be proud of me!).
