["IE Ries" <FEATHERCHASER@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Even though most parks are closed down and alot of trails are impassable, I 
found a place to take a walk yesterday (Swift Creek Forest Road on the 
Courthouse Road side of Pocahontas State Park).  Here's my sightings list for 
yesterday:
Carolina Wren
Blue Jay
Overbird (I have seen more in the past month then I have in my entire life!)
Wood Peewee
Yellow Billed Cuckoo
American Crow (everywhere; I seem to have run into a rather large flock of them)
Carolina Chickadee
Tufted Titmouse
Northern Cardinal
Whitebreasted Nuthatch
Northern Flicker
Redbellied Woodpecker
Downy Woodpecker
Scarlet Tanager (female)
 
I should add a spider count here, too...webs everywhere and the size of some of 
the spiders were rather impressive!!  I watched on complete an entire web (that 
was around dinner plate size) with remarkable speed.

Anyone here going to the Eastern Shore Birding Fest next weekend?
