Hey everyone,

I spent a few hours birding Dorchester County today.  Highlights include:

Hurlock WWTP

Cattle Egret -- 1
Tree Swallow -- 1500+  spent a half hour searching for Cave Swallow to no avail.
American Pipit -- 12
Pine Siskin -- 3   small flock flyover

Elliot Island Road marshes
Extremely birdy.  Sparrow flocks were large in most of the hammocks.

Eastern Phoebe -- 2   both birds sitting on telephone wires a couple
miles apart.
Blue-headed Vireo -- 2
Ruby-crowned Kinglet -- 42
Hermit Thrush -- 25
Common Yellowthroat -- 1
Fox Sparrow -- 1
Vesper Sparrow -- 1   feeding along the road just north of the island.
