Subject: [MDBirding] Previous Maryland sighting of Yellow-Billed Loon
Now that we have photographic proof of a Yellow-Billed Loon visiting
Maryland, perhaps it would be appropriate to reconsider an earlier sighting
in November, 1999. It was spotted by three birders with experience with
that loon from the west. They had no photographs so that’s why they think
their sighting was not accepted by the records committee. What’s
fascinating to me is the that 1999 sighting at Sandgates in St. Mary’s
County along the Patuxent River is quite close to the present day sighting
along that river! Thoughts?
