Doh! That's always the last place I think to look (especially when I am in  
front of the computer and the book is, well, somewhere else). Thanks. Seems 
like  there should be good habitat down that way though.

Rick,  

Check your breeding bird atlas book. There were never  very many Horned Larks 
in Calvert County

HI Fred, 
I know this statement was somewhat  tongue-in-cheek, but are there  really 
that few Horned Larks in  Calvert County? Is it just from declining  habitat, 
over-development,  what? It's been several years since I've been down  that 
way, 
and I  seem to recall lots of new homes going in where once there  were nice  
tobacco farms, but are there any other reasons for their decline  there?

Horned  Larks, my Calvert  nemesis, to the roadside, we drove along the 
road to  Jefff-Patterson  Park this evening, and indeed did spot one - 
perhaps the  last Horned  Lark in Calvert  County
