This morning I went to Ocean City MD for the Sea Watch bird count.   The 
whether was not that great but we managed to see some   birds.  birds I saw are 
mentioned below.
Gannet 
Black Scoter
Surf Scoter
White Wing Scoter
Common Loon
Red Throated Loon
Bonaparte Gull
Laughing Gull
Pintail Duck
Long Tailed Duck
Greater Scaup
Oyster Catcher
Purple Sandpiper
Bald Eagle 
Forster's Tern 
Double Crested Cormorant
Great Cormorant 
a possible Common Eider 
The hi light of the count was when a Harbor seal popped up in the surf with  
a fish in his mouth. 
I wish that I could stay for the whole day but I had other plans. But  maybe 
next year I will. This was my first bird count by the ocean and  was different 
then what I was used to( bird counting in PA). But because I moved  down here 
I decided to give it a try.  And it was worth it.
