Hi Folks!
My drive home takes me past the marsh immediately south of the Anne Arundel
County line on Rt. 261. I glanced at it while heading south and saw what
looked like the silhouette of a Black-necked Stilt. A quick stop at home for bins &
camera followed. The return produced not 1, but 2!
Black-necked Stilts, 2 Dunlin, 3 Lesser Yellowlegs, 200+ Least Sandpipers, 8
Semipalmated Sandpiper, 6 Semipalmated Plover , 4 Spotted Sandpipers and 3
Snowy Egrets. This is my 4th record of Black-necked Stilt for the marsh and a
record high count for Calvert ;-)
Good Birding!
