Hi all,
 
 Birded for a couple of hours along upper Rock Creek, near Dewey Rd. Had some good migrants, but not much out of the ordinary.  First bird seen was a Cooper's Hawk flying low over the area, that spooked a lot of birds. When it passed, all the little birds cautiously came back out. Lots of Gray Catbirds around, must have been a backlog.
