What a great morning! I enjoyed several new birds for 2008 at Jug Bay this
morning. I saw and heard my first Louisianna Waterthrushes and White-eyed
Vireos, plus I saw a Spotted Sandpiper (my earliest date). I also saw a couple
species that were FOY for my yardlist but ones I've seen elsewhere this year.
Today I've had Common Loon fly-bys three times, and one was calling -
always great to hear them! Yesterday evening was also great, I saw Jim S.
and Matt H. at Mt. Calvert area, and enjoyed watching birds with them. I'll let
them mention the noteworthy birds, since it may be part of a weekend outing
for them.
Cheers!
