On Dec 7, Jeff Effinger found a Loggerhead Shrike outside of Ridgely, in Caroline Co. It's been seen yesterday and today on Ninetown Road. Notably, this bird is color banded and I've already heard back from the Loggerhead Shrike Working Group after turning in the sighting. The bird was captive-bred by the Smithsonian Conservation Biology team in VA and hatched in summer 2024. It was sexed as female and released just outside of Newburgh, Ontario in August. They are very intrigued by this sighting since the wintering location of birds nesting in Ontario is largely unknown.
