Greetings,

I have been doing a fair amount of birding (all things considered) lately.. 
Plenty of migrants around, though I don't feel as though the real mother-
load has arived. By that I mean, that in my opinion, things are kind of 
scattered and sort of trickling in. However, on Sunday I did manage to 
round up 85 species in 4 hours at the Susquahanna State Park north of Havre 
de Grace (15 Warblers including Kentucky, Cerulean, Magnolia, and Protho.)I 
also had 5 flycatchers (Eastern Kingbird, Great Crested, Phoebe, Acadian, 
and Least). 

Yesterday I had A (Solitary) Solitary Sandpiper in a storm water run-off 
pond at the Aberdeen Proving Ground (APG). Also yesterday, I had 
Semipalmated Plover (5), Least Sandpiper (6), and Greater Yellowlegs (1) at 
the Swan Harbor Impoundment.

Today I was thrilled at hearing a lone Northern Bobwhite calling from a 
woodline down-range at APG. It has been YEARS since I have heard Bobwhite 
from anywhere other then the coastal plain -admittingly I have not been 
looking for them though. 

ATTN: Dave Webb, This may be your atlas area??? Have you had Bobwhites on 
post before?  

Incidentally, I also had my first of the year Yellow-billed Cuckoo calling 
here at APG today!

Good Birding,
