I've been away from the computer this weekend, but last Thursday I drove
through PG on my way to St. Mary's and made a couple of quick (<an hour) stops. 

Highlights (for me at least) were hundreds of Robins, Gadwall, Northern
Shovelers on Schoolhouse Pond and Am. Pipit and a Barred Owl at Patuxent
River Park. I posted a couple of so-so pics of the waterfowl-

Bill took care of the Pax River NAS count, so I'll pass on repeating that.

Happy new year!
