Day 317: Snow Bunting

We had a wonderful weekend birding in eastern Maryland. The weather was perfect, and I even photographed a few new birds. The best part of the weekend was Saturday night, when Texas A&M beat the #1 ranked Alabama football team! Whoop!! Just had to throw that in there.

On our way home yesterday, we stopped in a park in Annapolis with the hopes of seeing a Snow Bunting. There was supposed to be one hanging around, and luckily it was still there when we arrived. It appeared to be pretty tame, so we were able to get close enough for some great photos. Every year, a few Snow Buntings are found wintering in Maryland. This was my first time to see one, though.
