We are still waiting for many areas to report, but preliminary highlights for 
the count, held Saturday the 18th in fine weather, include Oldsquaw, N. 
Pintails, Canvasbacks, (all "good" waterfowl for this count), 2 Long-eared 
Owls, 3 N. Saw-whet Owls + 1 that was found still warm but dead on Bowie Mill 
Rd. in Olney, Am. Pipits and Horned Larks, a Lincoln's Sparrow, American 
Woodcock, plus a number of Chipping Sparrows and Am. Tree Sparrows, a couple 
of Purple Finches, and record numbers of E. Bluebirds. The bird that seemed 
to cause the most "stir" at the tally, was, however, a possible E. Collared 
Dove. The details are not too good, but  hopefully someone (or myself) can 
relocate this bird and get better looks through a scope. I may try and 
squeeze in some time on Wednesday morning to give a look. Anyone interested 
leave me an e-mail at Warblerick@aol.com. The bird was seen just SW of the 
"landfill pond" at Rt. 108 west of Olney.

 Hope the Seneca and D.C. counts went well.
