Okay, I give ...

What is "water bush"?   I looked it up and all I can find is myoporum acuminatum - a shrub from Australia.  Any links, photos ...? 

Thanks!

I made another trip back to Assateague Island today with Joe Byrnes and Jeff
uller. As we previously reported the Ash-throated Flycatcher was posing for
ictures near the Life in the Marsh Trail parking lot. Other highlights
ncluded an Orange-crowned Warbler in the same general area as the
lycatcher. Jim Stasz pointed out that the Water Bush is a good plant to
ind Orange-crowns. We later found two more Orange-crowned Warblers at the
ack of Bayside Development Pond and you guessed it - in Water Bush.
t the Ocean City Inlet there were 9 Common Eiders, 2 Harlequin Ducks, and a
lack Skimmer along with the usual suspects. The Purple Sandpiper count is
ncreasing with 30 landing on the north jetty along with Rudy Turnstones.
 heard a report of two Razorbills flying by Ocean City but we did not see
hem at our sea watch.
