Dear Ospreyers,

The Audubon Maryland-DC monthly birdwalk at Patterson Park in Baltimore was attended good weather and by 11 people, including 2 birders from the Osprey list, Marcy Stutzman and Kevin Sperka. The list below is not a complete one but includes the migrants and other species of interest. Apologies for the random order - they fell out of my notebook that way!

Next Saturday, May 6, the Baltimore Bird Club field trip to Patterson Park will be led by Middleton Evans, a bird photographer who is producing a book on the park, not myself as stated in the BBC schedule. All are welcome. Meet at 8am at the fountain by 27 South Patterson Park Avenue.
