Dear All

Went out to Rock Creek this morning for the first time this spring.  It was 
a bit chilly (the door on the car was iced shut overnight) and although 
pleasantly sunny was a fairly quiet morning birdwise with no active visible 
migration to speak of.  High spots were a single Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, 3 
Black & White Warblers, a Red-shouldered Hawk and 5 Hermit Thrushes in the 
Maintenance Yard plus a Field Sparrow at the Dog Run.

I met another birder who had seena Palm Warbler near the stable block.

Small sign of spring but no great rush on as yet..

Cheers

Gary
