Hi Everyone,

I spent the last two days on the Eastern Shore. Several of the highlights from the trip.

Wicomico on 5/17 - Black-Billed Cuckoo calling at first light along Bear Swamp road.

Worcester on 5/18 - 2 Black-necked Stilts and a White-rumped Sandpiper at Truitts Landing among the 3-4 hundred shorebirds. In a nearby field, there were 100 plus Black-bellied Plovers.

Talbot on 5/18- Merlin crossed a field in front of me, close to Pickering Creek. At Pickering I had a Sora, but could not locate the moorhen.

Regards,
