Hi All, 
     Made it through Fridays  6 tornadoes !!! Shewww !! Closest to me i guess was BWI airport . 
Hope all is well with everyone . 
Had to get out and enjoy some of yesterdays beautiful weather . Did some birding at Patuxent Refugee in Fort Meade .List below . The visitor center was enjoyable . They have feeders of all sorts to accompany birds of all sorts. Hummingbirds were enjoying the hummingbird feeder. And really enjoyed getting pics of Zebra Swallowtails at the Milkweed in full bloom on the far side of the visitor center. There were at least 3 here and a couple along the wildlife drive also . Again the fun had to be over cause they close at 400 . 
Did some Raven hunting before and after Patuxent birding . Was unable to find Ravens but now know where all the spots are . Will look forward to seeing them here in the future. Thanks Marcy and Jay our Raven trackers. 
Also found a dor Yellow billed Cuckoo on Brockbridge road a little ways down from the trash trains. 
Yes im out the door again ! Do not stay indoors when its nice outdoors .
