Hi Jeff, et al.

The MD/DCRC Maryland on-line (abridged) database is here ...

         http://www.mdbirds.org/mddcrc/rcindex.html

It's a very large PDF file (don't print it!), but do a search/find 
for "billed curlew" and it will take you to page 46 where you can see 
the MD reports and records.

There was one other record after the 1987 bird ... it was accepted 
from Elkton on 8/21/2003.

Not counting yesterday's report, there are a total of seven reports 
and records from Maryland ... four were accepted by the MD/DC Records 
Committee and one record was accepted by Stewart and Robbins (1958). 
Two others will likely not produce any specimens or documentation and 
will end up as "Unreviewable."

There is also one not accepted record for DC from 1842.

Hope this helps ...

Phil
