Hello all.

Had a particularly productive outing this afternoon-evening in the Pasadena 
area of northern Anne Arundel County. 

Bird of the day was an unexpected male Northern Pintail in the first water 
impoundment along Kembo Road. This is the impoundment across from the 
Under Armour warehouse. I bird this area at least twice per week and havent 
run across a pintail here since March.  Also had good looks at a pair of Chats 
and a family of Orchard Orioles, which tend to disappear in July around here.
