Worked at home today and took a couple of hours off to do some birding at Chesapeake Bay Environmental Center, aka Horsehead, in QA County. Found 2, and likely more, BHNUs working high in the loblolly pines on the east (??) side of the main pond. Have had them before at this location.
It was quite cold, with much of the water frozen over, and not a lot of bird activity. Other FoYs were a pair of Bald Eagle, Brown Creeper, Northern Pintail and LT Duck.
Full list below. Good birding all!
