It took me almost two years to chase down the Grasshopper Sparrows at
Andover Overlook near BWI airport in Anne Arundel county (see Stan
Arnold's post of 7/1/2003 for directions), but the trip was worth it. In
addition to 2 Grasshopper Sparrows, I found 6 female Bobolinks in the
field. I'm sure there are more than the 2 sparrows there, but nothing was
singing in the mid-afternoon heat.
