Hi everyone,

I birded briefly on the way in to work this morning at Saddle Brook park
(the community park directly behind the horse track on Race Track Road) in
Bowie.  The highlight of the morning came in the form of a high flying and
calling AMERICAN GOLDEN PLOVER I did not have my camera with me at that
moment so I ran back, grabbed it and was able to get a few IDable shots
before it disappeared over the treeline.  There were also singles of
GRASSHOPPER SPARROW, AMERICAN KESTREL, and WESTERN PALM WARBLER  in the
overgrown parking lot.

Good birding!
