Some FOY birds for Nancy and me today at Antietam Battlefield in Washington
County. A Prairie Warble and Vesper Sparrow were found singing from their
usual perches, and a Ruby-throated Hummingbird gave us a flyby. (We also had
our first hummingbird come to our feeder, today.)

Also new for the year for us were Great-crested Flycatcher, and
Black-throated Green Warbler.

The complete Antietam list--53 species--is as follows:
