Hi everyone,
 
The birds have been trickling in at my 3/4 acre yard in Jessup.  
I had:
4/29 Nashville Warbler -only my 3rd record for the property in 14 years!
4/29 Black-and-White Warbler - A nice male singing away in my largest Pin Oak.
4/30 Magnolia Warbler - Pretty male, new early arrival date. Beat the old record by 3 days.
 
The most interesting observation I had was a Gray Catbird eating Lilac flowers off one of the bushes!  I can't say I've ever seen that before.  It ate 5 or 6 of them while I watched, then, flew off.
