Participating in the Frederick Bird Club's Big Day, Barbara Gearheart, Mike Welch and I were at the base of Sugarloaf Mountain at Stronghold early this morning when Barbara spotted a tanager. As Mike and I looked at it, the bird morphed into a beautfiul SUMMER TANAGER. We went back later at 5 p.m. but could not relocate the bird.
We also heard a WHIP-POOR-WILL about 5:30 a.m. along Mt. Ephraim Road.
