While birding Blackwater NWR Sunday, Marcy Stutzman, Dave Brenneman and I came across a Eurasian Collared-Dove at Tour Stop #10 on Wild Life Drive at about 3 PM.  The dove was on the ground about 50 feet away and we could clearly see the black collar on the back of the neck and the fan tail when it flew.

Also, Sunday morning at about 1.2 miles down Cedar Creek Road (southeast of Blackwater), we saw several Sedge and Marsh Wrens as well as a few Saltmarsh Sharp-tailed Sparrows.
