Hi all,
My brother and I did some birding around Montgomery County today. We started off with a quick stop at Woodend where it was quiet, then moved on to Little Bennet where we had 10 warbler species. Later I took a walk at Hughes Hollow where there was predictably little activity in the heat of the afternoon (zero egrets and herons), finally stopped for a look at the Yellow-crowned Night-herons in North Bethesda. At least one YCNH is still present at the Grosvenor Park pond as of 5:30 today. Highlights listed below.
