Hi Everyone, 

 I went out this afternoon to get birdfood at the GlenBurnie Petsmart and decided to check the Eagle nest on Furnace ave at  Marley Creek .I parked at the school prior to the powerlines .  There was one Eagle on the nest on the manmade metal platform on top of the Power tower . There may have been another in the nest i couldnt tell .The hedgerow between the school and the powerline was a birdy area. Blue jay 3 , Cardinal 5 , Whitethroated sparrow 10, House sparrow 5, DE Junco 5 , Common Dove 30 on powerline, Fishcrow 1 vocal , Carolina wren 1 , Northern Mockingbird 1. 
I stopped at Cedar Hill cemetary and found the SharpShinned hawk that my friend saw in this area a week ago. also here Canada Goose 50 , European Starling 30 . 

Bird at home in Brooklyn today (including  flock of 200 blackbird that hung around all morning cleaning up the leftover birdfood mess from the last month .)
