Cumberland County MBC



Yesterday I had to split my efforts for the Cumberland County MBC 
because I had to work graduation at the college during the afternoon.  I 
birded from 5:30 to 11:00 a.m. in the area near home, covering the 
King's Grant golf course, Methodist College, and the lower end of 
McClosky Road.  I was satisfied with my morning finds, including a pair 
of loggerhead shrikes and an eastern wood-pewee.  After graduation ended 
my fishing partner and I drove to Beaver Dam Creek in the southeastern 
corner of the county and birded until dusk.  There we found, among other 
birds, the y-b chat I had located earlier this spring and a y-b cuckoo 
which we saw very well.  The cuckoo was a new county bird for me.
