Here's my first contribution to the new "Greg Miller Shorebird Net":

The "Public Container Pad" outside of Upper Marlboro (where the Eurasian 
Wigeon was for 2 winters) pond is very low this year (duh) and yesterday had 
at least 2 Sollys, a spotty and several Leasts.  Last year it was quite a 
good spot right thru October.  It was much lower last year, when i first 
started looking in August.  

The other great thing about it is that it is a recycling drop-off!  Of 
course, i guess most folks have curbside these days, for for we-sorts out in 
the sticks, its a great way to "justify" all that gas over a bunch of silly 
shorebirds :)  There are also Meadowlarks in the adjacent field, which i 
anyway don't hear much from anymore.  Best to go there before noon (it opens 
at 7) because light is better.  It is open 7 days.
