I decided to check out the north end of Triadelphia Reservoir (via the Triadelphia Lake Road access) after the rain stopped and found a nice group of shorebirds.  Kept looking for one with a really long bill but had to settle for two Stilt Sandpipers being the highlight.   Birds were noted in both Howard and Montgomery counties unless noted otherwise.

Canada Goose - 14
Green-winged Teal - 25
Wild Turkey - 2 (Mont Co)
Great Blue Heron - 1
Osprey - 1
Killdeer - 3
Greater Yellowlegs -  6
Lesser Yellowlegs - 12
Least Sandpiper - 4
Stilt Sandpiper - 2
Barred Owl - 1 (heard Mont Co)
Belted Kingfisher - 1
Downey Woodpecker - 1  (Mont Co)
Eastern Phoebe - 1  (Mont Co)
American Crow - 5
Carolina Chickadee - 1  (Mont Co)
Tufted Titmouse - 2  (Mont Co)
Golden-crowned Kinglet -   1  (Mont Co)
