Hi All,
Nancy and I will be leading an all-day Kent County Bird Club trip to the 
wetlands and pinelands south of Cambridge, starting with Blackwater 
National Wildlife Refuge on Sunday 7 March. We expect to see lots of 
waterfowl and eagles, Brown-headed Nuthatch, harriers and other raptors 
(a fair chance for Short-eared Owl), and perhaps some early spring 
migrants. A recent report from Blackwater featured American White 
Pelicans (although they have not been as reliable as in past winters). 
We will meet folks in Kent County at the Dollar General parking lot 
across from the intersection of Spring St. and MD-213 in Chestertown at 
8:00 AM. We will also be making a stop at the junction of MD-404 and 
US-50 ca. 9:10 AM. Anyone who wishes to meet us south of Chestertown 
should contact Nancy and I at the phone number or e-mail listed in the 
signature below. Bring lunch and snacks and dress appropriately for this 
all-day trip. We hope to see some of you on Sunday.
Good Birding,
Walter Ellison & Nancy Martin
