ed we go to Watkins Mill for a walk, a walk turned into an all day bird watching affair. Tonight we have tornado watches and warnings. (So far all the bad stuff missed us, hope that continues.) 
Watkins is a county park, a great place. There is a nice campground, fishing lake, bike trail, an old woolen mill and church and school. 
This is the old church at Watkins where we learned from the park workers, that there is a red tailed hawk nesting over at the Mill. The park workers were cleaning up the church and school and they let us take a look at the interiors. We then went over to the Mill, Ken has some good photos of the hawk, they were too far away for my camera. (Ken should set up a website for his photos!!)
We meet Linda again with her bird watcher friends. We saw a few new birds to add to our list and a couple we have no idea what they are. (Where are the experts when we need them? ) We were excited to see our first Tanager, Ken didn't have his camera at that time. He needs to always have a camera at hand. I visited Linda's site tonight and she mentioned us in her blog, how fun is that. Linda's site is www. lindawilliamsphotography.com. We have so much to learn about bird watching!!!
I guess, the salamander and butterflies aren't birds, but I can capture them with my camera, except the tiger swallowtail and admiral butterflies they wouldn't pose for me.
