I have really enjoyed reading the archives for the last year or so, and have learned so much about birding in Maryland. Thanks to all who contribute to this list. My husband and I birded the Isaak Walton League property in Charles County off of Popular Hill Road yesterday (4/15). It was a beautiful morning and there was a lot of activity along the boardwalk. Birds seen and heard were: Tufted Titmouse Blue Jay Carolina Chickadee American Goldfinch Northern Parula - saw one singing, heard several others *American Redstart - beautiful, close view Louisanna Waterthrush - singing Common Yellowthroat Ruby-crowned Kinglet - saw one singing White-eyed Vireo - great view, also singing Yellow-shafted Flicker - lots Downy Woodpecker Hairy Woodpecker Red-bellied Woodpecker Pileated Woodpecker Rusty Blackbird White-throated Sparrow, many singing American Robin White-breasted Nuthatch In the meadows and near the barn: Eastern Bluebird Barn Swallow European Starling Killdeer near it's nest in the gravel parking lot Chipping Sparrow Field Sparrow Song Sparrow Red-winged Blackbird - also near the boardwalk Northern Harrier Northern Mockingbird American Crow I was hoping to see a Winter Wren, but no luck.
