To paraphrase Amy Winehouse:  
They asked me if there was a crossbill, I say no, no,
no.  

Yup.  No White-winged Crossbill.  A 20 minute vigil
(stationary and walking) along Sligo Creek Parkway
just west of Colesville Road produced some American
Goldfinches, House Finches, Carolina Chickadee, Downy
Woodpecker, Tufted Titmouse.  An adult Bald Eagle flew
high overhead.  

An immature Red-tailed Hawk flew over my yard when I
arrived home.
