  Hi All now  that I have  your attention  yesterday  afternoon / eveing   
after work I went to Wye Island near Queenstown  in Queen Annes County  to 
look for some migrant warblers  from 5:30 Pm  to 7:15 Pm . It started off 
slow Least Terns in the river near the bridge .  A couple of Yellow  Runps  
at the picnic  area near the road  just  before  the spot were the road 
changes to dirt  .  Also  four Catbirds here  Eating berries  from a 
catbrier vine still holding its fruit .
     After going  through the  double  woods to the very sharp turn  were 
there is a trail in the woods  to the river .   I found a few more  Birds   
Yellow Rumps ,  Catbirds .   Coming  Back to the Parking area  I then 
proceded to  Walk near the main road   the trees were full of Birds .   
Looking  through  my Bins  at   all the movent  most all of the birds  
turned   out to be  Yellow  Rumps .   Walking  along the road more and more
