Found a Peregrine Falcon flying over the fields  by the intersection of Underwood Road and Old Frederick Rd in Howard County today around noon.  The Peregrine landed briefly on the top of a nearby silo, and a few minutes later I saw it perched in a tree along Underwood.  Unfortunately, some workers spooked it and I didn't see it again.

Birds noted from Underwood Rd:

Turkey Vulture - 1
Peregrine Falcon - 1 
Rock Pigeon - 20
Morning Dove - 1
American Crow - 150+
Horned Lark - 30+ (in 3 different flocks)
European Starling - 3
Dark-eyed Junco - 10
