Off the top of my tired head i also had Yellow Warbler , Coopers hawk , White throated sparrows and Common yellow throat at Bachmans a couple nights ago . Havent been able to get out and walk around
Birdfood put out by the piles of dirt on the parking area. This is where the White Crowned Sparrows were seen .
Also wanted to report that i stopped at Swan Creek yesterday afternoon to look for Avocet without any luck . Sat in the car for about 20 minutes and had around 400 Red Admiral Butterflys following the windtunnel along the edge of the containment area here. They were being pushed west so id assume there are going to be many around the Patapsco River area this weekend.
Happy Birding , Bugging and Anhingaing .
Now ill get to those Anhinga reports .
