Peromyscus Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Slaty-backed Gull in Baltimore, MARYLAND https://ebird.org/checklist/S100909906 I'm hoping it sticks around to the weekend. There are no accepted records for Maryland (or DC, Delaware, West Virginia, Virginia either as far as I know). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Code 5 Design should do a Slaty-backed Gull 2021-2022 t-shirt akin to their Steller's Sea-Eagle shirt (that has all the states and provinces listed). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peromyscus Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 (edited) That waxwing report is amazing, considering that none have been reported this winter closer than lakeside Ohio and near Rochester, New York. It quietly snuck south. There appear to be no sightings accepted by the state records committee of this species. The photos are stunning.

Yeah, and good on the homeowner for noticing and getting photos! Apparently it hasn't been seen again. Someone on Facebook said it was the third state record, but the last one was in 1975.

There's a published record from 1967 from Fairfax County; I don't know off hand about the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently there was one in the same spot in October, so some are speculating that it is the same one, and maybe just hasn't been re-found until now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
