Been meaning to post the last few days new obs, but just too busy. Pardon
the delay - these are only new arrivals in the southern Wash.Co. area, not
posting the full list per day.

Bob - can't recall if i already posted the first few (should I just email
directly to you?)

4/29 - S.Mtn.S.P., ridgeline:  SCARLET TANAGER
"" - yard - RB GROSBEAK

4/30 - yard - BLUE GROSBEAK
"" - yard - CHIMNEY SWIFT
"" - yard - CATBIRD

5/1 - Potomac R, woods on WV and MD sides between Snyders and Antietam Ck
OSPREY, YELLOW WARB, PROTHONOTARY WARB, AM.REDSTART (for certain now), BANK
SWALLOWS, COMMON LOON (probably around prior).  Not new, but a RT HAWK nest
was observed and it gave us some serious shrieking as we passed.

5/2 - C&O Canal, Lock 34 to 35; WOOD PEWEE, ORCHARD ORIOLE

5/3 - RT HUMMINGBIRD...sipping from the oriole feeder.
