Rick,

Thanks for the heads-up.  Fran and I are thinking about trying to add 
Baltimore and Carroll Counties to our short list (so far) of 
crossbill sightings in Maryland.  Sorry we didn't get a chance to 
chat at Boomers but I was just a tad tired out (not to mention wet!).

Hopefully our paths will cross in January at Conowingo!

Cheers,
Norm
