After a fairly fruitless trip around Perimeter Rd on Andrews AFB yesterday, I dipped in on Schoolhouse Pond. I was only able to spot one migrant warbler, a MAGNOLIA WARBLER, in the woods behind the pond. Two VEERIES, a Wood Thrush, and a couple of unidentified Empids rounded out the short list of interest at the pond. The Trumpeter Swan was also present. 

Good birding, 
Matt
