Between showers I was working in the yard and saw/heard the following today:

 

1 female N. Cardinal, 1 male (saw both)

Chestnut sided warbler (1 seen and heard)

Black throated blue (heard only)

Yellow-rumped warblers (heard only)

 

Yesterday afternoon (sorry for the late post)

 

Great crested flycatcher (Heard only)

 

Baltimore folks who want to plant some trees, shrubs, or plants in their
yard, consider visiting MD natives nursery on Sunday, May 21, 10 am - 2 pm
will be open for retail sales (usually they are wholesale only).  The
nursery sells hard to find Beech trees (high wildlife value) in various
sizes, as well as oaks, pines, etc.  Prices are reasonable.  I swear no
family members of mine work there or own it, just thought bird enthusiasts
would like to know about this since more good trees hopefully mean more good
birds...

From I-95, take Exit 67, Md Route 43 White Marsh Blvd westbound. At first
traffic signal turn right on Honeygo Blvd. Go approximately 3 traffic
signals and turn left on Joppa Rd.  Approximately 1/4 mile on right is the
nursery. There is no sign, however there is a large blue pyramid marking the
entrance. Drive up the hill to the plants and trailer. 

From I-695 north of Baltimore, take Exit 31, Route 43 White Marsh Blvd (left
exit). Turn left at the fifth traffic signal after the beltway onto Honeygo
Blvd. Go approximately 3 traffic signals and turn left on Joppa Rd.
Approximately 1/4 mile on right is the nursery. There is no sign, however
there is a large blue pyramid marking the entrance. Drive up the hill to the
plants and trailer.
