  • Ricciardi 2018
    Fall 2018 Maryland Birdlife Volume 67, Number 2 Maryland Birdlife 67(2):79–83 2018 Spring Raptor Migration at Fort Smallwood Park, Anne Arundel County, Maryland Sue A. Ricciardi 1132 Ferber Avenue, Arnold, Maryland 21012-1837 [email protected] Spring 2018 brought mixed results, with some impressive counts, but also with some that were very concerning. The season’s total number of migrant raptors, 10,314, was above the ten-year (2008–2017) average of 10,130 (Table 1). Coverage of 468 hours and 83 days was in each case within a few percentage points of average. Turkey Vulture, Osprey, Cooper’s Hawk, Bald Eagle, and Red-shouldered Hawk had season counts above their 5-year (2013–2017) averages. Ospreys, especially, were delightfully numerous; the count of 699 was the second highest ever. Sadly, Northern Harrier, Sharp-shinned Hawk, Broad- winged Hawk, Red-tailed Hawk, and American Kestrel continued their long- term and worrisome declines. To illustrate, the daily record high count for American Kestrel is 387, achieved in 2004. However, the entire count for this season was just 88. The Sharp-shinned Hawk low count of 598 is unprecedented. Only once since significant coverage began in 1993 has the seasonal count been less than 1000 and that was 845 in 2013. Percent changes in season counts are displayed in the Table 1. Although Cooper’s Hawk had a positive 5-year percent change, the long-term trend is also in the downward direction. Merlin numbers have undergone more variability over the years, so that the negative percent changes shown are not significant.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Colleen Joseph Chief Marketing and Events/PIO Anne Arundel County Department of Recreation and Parks [email protected] 410-507-6862 Anne Arundel County Department of Recreation and Parks Places Donation Trailers at Four Regional Parks Annapolis, MD (April 14, 2020) The Anne Arundel County Department of Recreation and Parks in cooperation with the Anne Arundel County Food Bank, Office of Emergency Management and Right Away Storage will have donation trailers in place starting Wednesday, April 15th, to encourage park visitors to donate non-perishable food items. The food bank has been experiencing a 200% increase in the numbers of residents who rely on the food pantries located throughout the county. Donating is considered an essential reason to leave your home. The trailers will be located at the four regional parks listed below. ● Quiet Waters Park - 600 Quiet Waters Park Rd, Annapolis ● Kinder Farm Park - 1001 Kinder Farm Park Rd, Millersvlle ● Downs Park - 8311 John Downs Loop, Pasadena ● Fort Smallwood Park - 9500 Fort Smallwood Rd,Pasadena “Bringing a food item in lieu of park fees is a great way to enjoy the park while helping out residents in need,” said County Executive Pittman. “Donations to the food bank are down, and this additional assistance from the Rec & Parks team, Office of Emergency Management, and Right Away Storage comes at an especially critical time. I thank everyone for stepping up and doing whatever is necessary to help.” Donation trailers will be available during normal park hours (7:00 a.m. to dusk). They will be placed as close to the park gatehouse as possible for easy access to residents dropping off donation items.
