21 people joined the Howard County Bird Club for a field trip to Middle
Patuxent Environmental Area this morning. The bird highlights were
Yellow-bellied Flycatcher, Least Flycatcher 2, Yellow-throated Vireo 2,
Philadelphia Vireo, and Tennessee Warbler.
Thanks to the drivers who shuttled people back to their cars, from Trotter
Rd to South Wind Cir after the trip.
9 of us walked back to the cars and had a Connecticut Warbler along the
river near the bottom of Clegg's Meadow.
