Fifteen birders came out for the monthly bird walk at Algonkian Regional Park on a gusty Sunday on November 16.  These hardy birders witnessed a Bald Eagle catching a huge fish and a Red-shouldered Hawk popping out of the field to alight on a nearby tree.  Ring-billed Gulls flying up the Potomac River and a Red-headed Woodpecker were also walk highlights.  Due to the wind, only 19 species were seen, but it was a pleasant social walk.
