During lunch today, I briefly birded the grounds at my work in South Baltimore 
along the Middle Branch. Was surprised to find among the normal "city" birds a 
WILSON'S WARBLER in the brush near the river. Other highlights included
Rose-breasted Grosbeak and Scarlet Tanager.


Stopped by Soldier's Delight around 6pm in search of the Hooded Warblers (no 
luck), but did find a number of warblers along the Mine Trail, including a male 
BAY-BREASTED WARBLER about halfway along the trail between the large mine 
opening and the first intersection. He was fairly cooporative (surprisingly) and 
provided good looks. Other warblers included:

Black-throated Blue Warbler
Black-throated Green Warbler
Prairie Warbler
Pine Warbler
BAY-BREASTED WARBLER 
Black-and-white Warbler
American Redstart
Ovenbird
Common Yellowthroat

Also heard a Wild Turkey and had both tanagers as well.
