The American Bittern at JFK Memorial Wildlife Sanctuary continues. It flushed from a channel away from the lot and flew towards the roadside marsh. Jones had a nice spread of expected winter species, including three Razorbills off the end of the jetty. I caught up with Harlequin Ducks at Point Lookout, though they were apparently at Jones before a dramatic raptor-on-raptor battle nearby sent them fleeing. Cedar Beach Marina was mostly quiet, but the male Boat-tailed Grackles are displaying.
