Hi All,

When I went outside this morning I finally had some warblers! 
 Black-throated-green Warblers were the only new ones that I detected 
for the fall.  The others were American Redstarts, Pine, 
Black-and-white, and Northern Parula and others not identified due to 
the light situation, but it inspired me to go birding.  There are many 
shorebirds on Long Neck Road though it is incredibly hard to see them 
unless they flush since they were in the back of the field and due to 
the height of the vegatation.  Again, many left unidentified, the others 
include Black-bellied Plover, Semi-palmated Plover, Killdeer, both 
Yellowlegs and Least Sandpiper.  Some have flown off, but all IDed 
species still there when I left. Great, Cattle and Snowy Egrets, Gleat 
Blue Herons, Horned Larks, Bald Eagle, Red-tailed Hawk, Laughing Gulls, 
Forster's Terns, flyover Boblinks and an American Kestrel were also present.

Yellow-billed Cuckoo was on Rt. 5

Some species that Matt did not see at Point Lookout included:  Bank, 
Barn and Tree Swallows; Chimney Swifts and Purple Martin flocking up at 
the point.

Good Birding,
Patty Craig
Dameron, St. Mary's County, MD
