   We were cold this morning, but it was worth it.  Roger Stone and I =
found a lifer for both of us- a female BLACK SCOTER*** on the Potomac =
between Violette's and Riley's Locks in Montgomery County, MD.  We =
watched it for several minutes before it flew south along the river. =20

   There were also several PURPLE FINCHES near the parking lots of both =
Violette's and Riley's, and at least a couple of PINE SISKINS near the =
parking lot at Riley's Lock.
  =20
Other highlights included:=20
-  2 BONAPARTE'S GULLS
-  2 BALD EAGLES=20
-  several YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKERS
-  something that sounded like a PEWEE in the Riley's Lock parking lot, =
which was also heard by two other birders.  We didn't find the bird.  =
Any ideas?  Starling maybe?=20
-  BLUE-HEADED VIREO
-  2 or 3 WINTER WRENS
-  BAY-BREASTED/BLACKPOLL WARBLER

***  The 'Yellow Book' suggests that this bird should be reported to =
Maryland Birdlife.  Does anyone know to whom the report should be sent =
and what other information, if any, needs to be contained in the report? =
 Thanks.
