Hi again,
I visited Fort McHenry in Baltimore early this afternoon and easily
located the vocal Western kingbird (lifer bird to me;)). Also seen were an
American Pipit, Osprey (3), Spotted Sandpipers, Cedar Waxwing
(11)Blackpoll Warblers (2), Northern Parula (2), Yellow Warbler (8+),
Ochard Oriole (2), and Baltimore Oriole (2).

Later in the afternoon I enjoyed a quick walk up the river along the rail
road tracks. I found a male Canada Warbler, Yellow-throated Warbler,
Louisiana Waterthrush, Yellow-throated Vireo (4), Barred Owl, a hawking
Common Nighthawk, Belted Kingfisher, Ruby-throated Hummingbird (8+),
Scarlet Tanager (6+), Indigo buntings (5+), Baltimore Oriole (6+)

A most birdy day without much effort!
