Nothing too surprising at LB yesterday.  Got there earlier than usual, 
and was almost deafened by the "dawn chorus" - there were so many birds 
singing that it was hard to separate them.

Best bird was a singing Cape May Warbler; I've heard a couple singing 
there in the last few years, but this is the first I've managed to see 
at LB since 1995.  (They seem to sing from the very tops of big trees, 
so they're difficult to see singing unless you can get far enough away, 
not be screened, and still be close enough to make out the bird.)  The 
Yellow Warblers are back in force - there were at least 5 singing in the 
100 yards between the parking lot and the MD121 bridge.  Also 3 
Yellow-throated Vireos near the bridge - I've never found them there 
before.  There were several Louisiana Waterthrushes singing around the 
footbridge a couple of hundred yards west of the MD121 bridge (don't 
remember the trail name) - that's new too (for me anyway).

Strange miss - didn't see any chickadees until I got home.
