For anyone who is interested you can find my winter sightings for
McKee-Beshers WMA (Hughes Hollow) at
www.ebird.org
They are listed under Hot Spots in Maryland. The only species that isn't
listed is the Eastern Phoebes which
e-bird considers rare and needs to be verified by an expert. Phoebes have
been very common this winter. So far I have probably found at least 9.
This cold weather is going to be hard on themn but as long as the Potomac
River stays open they should have a place to feed.
