A Mourning Warlber was singing at Middle Patuxent Environmental Area, Howard
County, this morning between 08:45 and 09:00.  True to form, it would not
show itself, but remained low in thick brush, giving its distinctive, rich
burry, 5-7 note song.  It was on the main loop off the Trotter Road parking
lot, between post 14 and the oxbow, or, if one went round the loop
clockwise, as you hit the river.  

Other highlights from 07:30-09:30 were:

Gray-cheeked Thrush - 1
Swainson's Warbler - 1
Veery - 5
Yellow-throated Vireo - 2
Blue-winged Warbler - 1
Canda Warbler - 1 (singing, AND seen)
Kentucky Warlber - 1
Hooded Warbler -1 (heard only)

I began the morning at 6:30 on the Clegg Meadow loop, where the sun was
shining on the wood edge.  I found it surprisingly uninteresting, the only
thing of note being a signing Kentucky Warbler, in some what atypical
habitat, the woods there hardly seeming dense enough.  I also found my only
Blackpoll Warbler for the morning there.
