expanses of glass:

> Hi all,
>
> Earlier this afternoon I walked over to Baltimore's Inner Harbor on my
> lunch break. The habitat islands in front of the National Aquarium
> were quite active. In addition to the usual House Sparrows and
> European Starlings, I found a single Gray Catbird, several
> White-throated Sparrows, an Eastern Towhee (looking and acting quite
> out-of-place), and a late Ovenbird. I don't have the Yellow Book
> handy, but the ovenbird seems really late, although it wasn't flagged
> in eBird. I was eye-to-eye with this bird for a few seconds but
> unfortunately didn't even have my phone with me to take a photo. There
> was also a mouse in one of the islands with a curious bald patch on
> its back...it almost looked like it had been shaved. Maybe a lab
> escapee?
>
> After the aquarium, I headed over to the black locust trees over in
> front of McCormick and Schmick's Restaurant on Pier 5. There I found
> a probable Yellow-bellied Sapsucker and an unidentified warbler that
> looked good for Tennessee. I didn't have bins and both birds were
> high in the trees briefly before disappearing.

> Good birding,
