Saw an adult Golden Eagle north of Frederick at Brook Hill this afternoon at
2:55PM - it was drawn in by a large circling flock of vultures - 18 Black and
36 Turkey, but soon drifted back over Catoctin Mountain. Also 2 Ravens overhead
nearby.
 
Very birdy around my home today. Grasshopper Sparrow (nice record) and Fox
Sparrow among the many commoner sparrows (including a dozen or so Swamp), 1
Yellowthroat, 10+ Yellow-rumped Warbler, both kinglets, Brown Creeper and
flyover Horned Larks. A single drake Northern Shoveler on the retention pond in
the development.
