Toumo Neinimen is temporarily living in North East, MD and at the help of many local "experts" he has been adding to his life list at qiute a good rate. He emailed me the following reports for this afternoon. From the very tippy top of the Chesapeake Bay (North East Town Park, North East, MD) Tuomo observed Barn, Tree, and Northern Rough-winged Swallow, Caspian Tern and Red-thoated Loon in basic plumage. He also tallied his first Chimny Swift from his home just north of town. To my knowledge this is the first report of Swifts in Cecil for 2003. Good Birding, Chris Starling ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
