The thermometer on my car said 36 degrees at 7:20, but there was a thin 
film of ice on some of the puddles.  There were a lot of birds around 
until about 9:30, but most of them were full-time or winter residents. 
The best were a spectacular view of a RC Kinglet flashing his ruby 
crown, close enough to touch (but I didn't try), a couple of 
gnatcatchers (my FOY), and a raven (flyover, croaking).  Also had my FOY 
cowbirds and Tree Swallows (but no Barn Swallows).

Kingsley Trail on the west side of MD121 has been closed for several 
weeks, with a sign saying "Park Closed".  (The birds seem to be taking 
that literally - almost no birds seen or heard in the approx 1/4 mile I 
walked there.)  Can anybody tell me the reason for the closing?

Complete list below.
