No kites of the avian variety, but my Easter weekend birds included:

Harford: a pair of rare-in-county COMMON RAVENS croaking repeatedly and 
circling above the trees Sunday afternoon at Harford Glen Park; at Swan 
Harbor Farm Park Sunday morning had ALL THE SWALLOWS and martins except 
Cliff plus the BOBOLINK reported by Peter and Dave (thanks guys), and 
Monday evening had at least three and possibly five SORAS and a calling 
LEAST BITTERN.

Cecil: at Elk Neck State Forest had BLUE-WINGED WARBLER, WORM-EATING 
WARBLER, a lingering (?)  BLACK-CAPPED CHICKADEE, and my foy 
BLACK-AND-WHITE WARBLERS everywhere.

Full lists submitted to eBird.

And this morning finally had a neotropical migrant in my yard -- a 
singing male BALTIMORE ORIOLE.

Good birding!
