I spent a few minutes on the wildflower trail off the Conowingo Dam
Fisherman's Park today. I saw one Black-Capped Chickadee in
a flock of Carolinas. I also saw two Brown Creepers get territorial,
and had a Golden-crowned Kinglet flyby about six inches from my shoulder.
A Winter Wren popped out of a brush pile to bob up and down
at me when I made chickadee noises. There were kinglets galore
right by the first platform.

Four adult Bald Eagles and two immatures were close by, flying,
fishing, and chirping. I would like to have seen the hundred-odd that
were there a couple of days ago!

it partakes of the nature of the divine." --Plato
