Highlights of the Baltimore Bird Club's walk in the Granite area [Woodstock]
of Patapsco Valley State Park included finding newly fledged young of the
Louisiana Waterthrush and Chipping Sparrow. Warblers found were Pine
Warbler, Prairie Warbler, Northern Parula, American Redstart and Ovenbird.
We also enjoyed watching a several Scarlet Tanagers, Indigo Bunting and
Field Sparrow singing on territory.
During one of the mornings quieter moments Dan's alarm call turned our
attention to an adult Bald Eagle flying low over river. Later in the
afternoon, we added a nice Yellow-billed Cuckoo sighting and couple of
Cooper's Hawks.
Thank you Paula, Marty, Judy, Georgia, Dan and Christine for very enjoyable
morning birding.
