Hi All, 

  Went to the Walk for the Woods bird walk at the Crownsville Preserve 
Saturday . Not usually open to the public. Located on the old Crownsville 
hospital grounds in Crownsville . Hosted by the Scenic Rivers Land Trust who 
help to preserve land. There were 30 people on the birdwalk which was not 
necessarily an easy walk. Mostly steep hills . Very birdy though . Made stops 
at Benefield post office off of Benefield road. and Southwest area park near 
Linthicum.
