Hi Robb, et al.

Sure. Northern Shrike was a reviewable species until the MD/DCRC 
removed it from the Review List in 2000. If you go to our MD database, here ...

         http://www.mdbirds.org/mddcrc/pdf/mddatabase.pdf

... this pulls down a large PDF document (don't print it!) but rather 
do a search/find for "Northern Shrike" you will be taken to a 
chronological listing of all of the Maryland reports and records 
between 1887 and 2000 for this species. There are a bunch! The DC 
reports are in the separate DC database.

Hope this helps ...

Phil
