Spent the morning and early afternoon birding in QA and Kent counties.
Found the Northern Shrike at 10am sitting on top of the closed-road sign as
soon as I pulled up.  It flew to a tree on Kibler Rd and was approachable
for the next 20 minutes.  I took 80 photos, all somewhat backlit and have
posted a few here:

From there I went to Eastern Neck and found a Golden Eagle and eight Bald
Eagles.  I then searched for several hours for Snow Geese in hopes of
finding a Ross's.  There were none in the Great Oak area but I finally found
a flock of 220 with one Ross's at the intersection of Carroll Clark Rd and
Rt. 313.
