FYI, and sorry for not posting earlier, Lisa and I went looking for the SNBU on Saturday from 445 to 530 and could not relocate it.

Inspired by Sue's report of the American White Pelicans in the Bay, I 
visited Thomas Point with two sleeping children.  I had FIVE pelicans 
out in the bay, but all were the BROWN variety.  Even still, this is 
*in my opinion* a super bird for Anne Arundel and my personal high 
count. 
 
One other interesting bird: a HY Royal Tern on the beach this AM at 
Sandy Point SP. The entire time, this bird seemed to have it's eye on 
Joe and Leslie, who were conducting a Snow Bunting search.  I'm not 
sure how that turned out, but I suspect that the man with the enormous 
loud kite scared the bird away yesterday afternoon. 
 
Good Birding,
