Hi All,

Where does the time go? On Sunday (18 Sept) we will be conducting the 
county-wide Kent County Fall Count under the auspices of the Maryland 
Ornithological Society (MOS). In essence the count is similar in 
practice to a Christmas Bird Count (CBC) as observers attempt to count 
all birds of all species in an assigned territory in the county (unlike 
a more limited CBC-circle, we use the county) keeping track of hours and 
miles on foot and by car (like a CBC). We have lots of territory 
available for interested observers.  Please contact me at home via 
e-mail or phone if you want to take a territory or join a preexisting 
team. My e-mail is rossgull <at> baybroadband.net and my home phone is 
410-778-9568. The weather is looking good for Sunday, partly cloudy with 
temperatures ranging from the mid 50s to low 70s. It will be two days 
after the passage of a cold front, but there should be migrants 
nonetheless as they haven't had a lot of good migration weather of late. 
Let's see what we can find after Thursday night's cold front.

Good birding,

Walter Ellison

Observing Nature is like unwrapping a big pile of presents every time 
you take a walk.
