Hello All,
Got a late start to Dorchester County Historical Society on Maryland Ave in Cambridge this morning for family tree research . After a disappointing trip in the library i asked if i could walk around the back and look around . Found nice selection of birds in all the trees behind the research center. Im sure there were more than i have listed . All the warblers were flycatching so at first thought i had many flycatchers. Thought id post the area in case someone else may have special access and want to go check it out . The birds were very content here . Watched them for about 2 hours . There is a nice wetland area with a small boardwalk beside Shoal ? creek here . Full of wild weeds . Prairie Warbler , Yellowthroats and wrens hanging there. Mockingbirds were in constant chase here . There is a Waste treatment plant opposite side of the Shoal ? Cormmorrants and Mallards abundant there . Also found many more Mallard down the block along the
river bank of the Choptank .
The Peregrine falcon was on the Bay Bridge and i counted 35 Vultures on the Power Tower near the entrance to Sandy Point . Sandy Point was closed for the night .
